wow, they're really good. i have to learn taiko drumming for a performance coming up, we started yesterday and i nevere knew playing music could be such hard work, my arms are killing me
Not just in Japan -- there are several US-based taiko groups, too, and I'm sure there are more around the world. I'm learning taiko with a group in Houston, and it's just as fun as it looks. =)

Love that taiko. Didn't you film one once before at the beginning or end of a foot race?
We're lucky enough here in HI to have Kenny Endo's dojo. A few months ago I went to a small show he did at our local library. In the past I thought that playing the various drums was mostly physical effort but was I wrong. He tried to teach me something very very simple but my mind just wasn't up to the task. The drummers know what to beat by remembering various complicated chants. aloha :) ray
i love this kind of music, ive seen KODO two times here in munich, really great.
about the video-quality... i guess the low sound quality on youtube just doesnt show how loud those drums are, you can imagine it when you pay attention to how silent the flute is in comparison, and some of the deep frequencies could also be missing.
drums is like the one musical instrument that is found in nearly every culture around the world. To me drums are a link between all peoples, its really hard to get out what i am sayin.
YT has done something funky, my videos are clear as bell on my computer and I'm uploading them at the usual size, etc... that I always use and they look super sucky posted. I'm sure its not that there is anything wrong with your camera!
