Скачать или смотреть Japanese Drumming | Naruwan Taiko | TEDxSanDiego

Naruwan Taiko presents two performances from their repertoire. Each piece was written to connect and engage with community. The spirit and sound of each piece is meant to energize the audience. As one of the earliest established taiko organizations in San Diego and with over 25 members, Naruwan Taiko performs Japanese-style drumming of the highest energy with a focus on strong stage presence, joyful expression, and powerful hitting. Though the art form of taiko has its origins in Japan, the name of Naruwan Taiko comes from the word “naruw’an” which is from the indigenous Taiwanese Ami language and conveys “Welcome [for] we are all in the same family.” This was made to represent our founder’s heritage and to share the message that taiko can be open to everyone. Founded by Diana Wu in 2008, the ensemble has performed all around Southern California including Legoland, Sea World, Balboa Park, and TEDxTemecula. Diana was also a featured artist at HERbeat, the world's first all-women taiko production starring the most influential female taiko players from around the globe. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
