Seeing (and feeling) one of these performances live is an amazing experience. I had the fortunate pleasure to attend a Korean drum ceremony in Seoul in late 2015, and I was mesmerized. Those beats penetrate right down to your bones!
The incredible energy, dedication, and positive attitude along with the tremoundous sounds makes this group top performers. Why isn't there a standing ovation ?!?
Too much hollywood, eh? As far as I am aware of there is no evidence for it and common sense tells me that it is highly unlikely. But you could actually research it, just make sure you do not fall for bogus sources.
Not sure about Korea, but Taiko Drums in Japan which are similar in concept may have seen some smaller use in the Sengoku period as one of the many ways of issuing commands in the middle of a battle.
The East has a lot of deep in their drumming. It's a lot of spirituality tied in with it. My releasing as well as cultivating the "ki"... Where in China is called the "chi" energy. With time the energy gets stronger and you will see the drumming gets more intense with time.
Chinese people have the erhu, a bowed instrument with a sad, refined sound to it. Japanese people have the koto, a noble stringed instrument fit for an aristocrat Koreans just have FUCKING DRUMS
@@Anginitkapetayo Taiko is very big with changing up tempos, often slowing down a lot only for it to slowly creep up to a rush of thunder. That means generally it’s slower, but that also means it can creep up to a ridiculous speed sometimes at its peak.
Yeah this is alright, nothing against Korean, maybe I just haven’t seen the best of Korean drums yet but Kodo of Japan is soooooooo much better look em up.
As a taiko player their playing style is alil different and the drum sticks called bachi in japanese are shorter so they play like a wild rock drummer. The movements are kept short. And the rythmn hardly changes. In Taiko the rythmn is a freeform jazz it change too a completely different song halfway plus the whole body is used the stances are different heights, jumps both need stamina bars for sure thou.
