Shamisen Vs. Taiko

Third clip from this unknown (to me) show. The shamisen is played with powerful accompanyment from a taiko drummer. Forgive me for not sharing the artists names, I am relatively new to the Japanese language, let alone 漢字 (Kanji). I hope I spelled that right :D

El shamisen es una instrumento que utilizaban las geishas, el taiko es un tambor de orquesta.
