We analyzed the Katsugi part of our piece from One Earth Music, "Shunpuu"! A live performance of a piece called "Yui" at the end! "Shunpuu" • 春風 Shunpuu Kodo One Earth Music Usage Guidelines www.kodo.or.jp...
Thanks to Kodo for putting this together, I've just borrowed a friend's Oke-daiko and I'm keen to try it out. Also thank you to the absolute champion who translated this.
Thank you for sharing. I live in Canada, so very hard to learn Taiko from a Professional player. It is a great idea to share your ability. The big appreciation.
incrivel, parabéns pela live. Parabéns pelo esforço em sanar as duvidas de outros grupos de taiko ao redor do mundo muito incrivel o trablho de vocês , subarashi
We are trying to learn katsugi now with my group so this was very useful! I think I understood most of it, but looking forward to the subtitles! :) My weak point is the left hand grip. It hurts.
Interesting, the "stroke" explanation is pretty much the Moeller technique, check out videos by Jim Chapin for more about that. I also use diddle strokes and flams when playing "katsugi." There aren't many applications of those western techniques in taiko, but they work well on the Okedo.
Could you tell the difference in the explanation between a down-stroke and a full stroke? They seemed pretty similar to me. Tap stroke and up-stroke I get from the Chapin video on triplets, but the full doesn't sound much different from the down.
