Taiko Course in Glasgow
Taiko drumming - "Wadaiko" - is an energetic, physical and
highly choreographed art form. Originally from Japan, with roots
going back hundreds of years and encompassing a variety of styles,
rhythms and movement, this traditional folk art is now developing
and spreading as a modern European art form.
Now is the chance for people here in Scotland to experience
a full course of this exciting discipline which is energetic &
fun & learnt alongside other taiko enthusiasts!
The Glasgow course is on Mondays 6:30 - 8:00 pm for 8 weeks
starting 16 Sept 2019, at community venue "The Space", just around
the corner from the Barrowlands.
This course is designed to be suitable for both beginners
& improvers, and will take the participants step by step from
the stance, to the bachi drumstick grip through to learning a
performance piece. The piece for this season is "Iki Iki" which
means "full of life" and is an upbeat festival piece using the
traditional mitsu-uchi rhythm.
