Taiko Tapas is a great new set of 21 teaching videos from Jonathan Kirby. They are completely free to access from Kagemusha Taiko’s website.
Please note that the new videos are designed for people leading established Taiko groups that have already mastered the basics. Beginner groups should instead start with Jonathan’s “Taiko for Schools Volume 1”.
To quote Jonathan Kirby:
“Taiko Tapas” are a series of tried-and-tested workshop routines. They are intended for people leading taiko groups or classes either in schools or in the wider community. If you are a group leader, you could look on these “taiko tapas” as starter activities – something fresh, new, quick, easy, and a good way to begin a session before moving on to repertoire rehearsal.
What you will NOT find in these “taiko tapas” is detailed technical training, nor will you find training on specific kata. Different groups use differing taiko technique and have different styles. It’s up to you to bring your way of playing taiko to these “tapas”. Think about them as IDEAS, open to you to do what you like with them.
One piece of advice I will offer is that you should think of these “taiko tapas” as opportunities for learning, not simply routines to be studied and played. In each of them, there’s something deeper than simply hitting a drum, such as development of self-confidence, working on personal relationships, and more.”
These video resources are free to access, but if you enjoy them and find them useful, please consider making a donation to our friends at Kagemusha Taiko.
