is dance. Each subtle movement of the body is intimately linked to
each beat of the taiko. While the various beats interplay and tangle,
the seven drummers concentrate, keeping the body both tense and flexible,
responding to the feedback from each beat of the bachi (drum sticks)
against the drum skin. In this piece, 7 taiko and 14 bachi generate
a multitude of sounds and expressions, which transform and evolve
in a cycle of fourteen. |
