Our summer is heating up with lots of performances including the Spokane City Library tour where YOU get to PLAY the DRUMS. #spokanetaiko #spokane #spokanecitylibrary #nwmac
Day 31 of the @nendaiko #TaikoLove challenge is #nextgeneration . Our group doesn't have a youth group, so our next generation comes from those that we have performed in front of, who we have given a chance to feel the way bachi vibrates against the head of a drum. Here is our director giving that chance to kids and adults alike in Missoula, Montana at the University of Montana's International Festival in 2015. #TaikoLove #spokanetaiko #taiko #drums #drumming #japanesestyledrumming #spokane #nextgeneration
Day 30 of the @nendaiko #TaikoLove challenge is #gratitude . In our group, at the end of each song we bow, perform rei, in gratitude for sharing the song with the audience and for sharing the performance with the other members. And for me, at the beginning, there's a sense of gratitude that I get to play, perform, lead. I am grateful for that. #TaikoLove #spokanetaiko #taiko #drums #drumming #japanesestyledrumming #spokane #gratitude
Day 29 of the @nendaiko #TaikoLove challenge is #spirit . I chose this picture to represent spirit. Because of the kids in the background dancing to our playing to the looks on our faces to the hands in the air. Spirit is all of this. Joy in the music and movement, sharing the style of drumming with others, how fun it is to play, and honoring those who performed before us. #TaikoLove #spokanetaiko #taiko #drums #drumming #japanesestyledrumming #spokane #spirit
Day 28 of the @nendaiko #TaikoLove challenge is #teaching. Every summer, our group does a tour of the local libraries for the summer reading program. We do about 3 songs, then give the kids a chance to play. Here is Jean and Finn leading during the hands-on portion of the hour. #TaikoLove #spokanetaiko #taiko #drums #drumming #japanesestyledrumming #spokane #teaching
Day 27 of the @nendaiko #TaikoLove challenge is #intensity. Aaron and Johanna in 2014 were highly focused and Aaron, Anna, Finn, Amanda, and Mari were equally focused in 2018. #TaikoLove #spokanetaiko #taiko #drums #drumming #japanesestyledrumming #spokane #intensity
