Taiko visit
I began my first day at my new school today. Every Wednesday I will be working with some students in need of assistance with their writing. They are a great lot and I had a fun day, but that is not why I am posting.
At lunchtime today some Japanese students from the International Pacific College turned up at school and blessed, and blasted, us on the Taiko. These were fantastically talented students who had been playing for between one and four years. There was a audible ‘Wow!” from the audience when the answer to “How often do you practise th be that good?” came back- “Twice a week, for 3 hours.”
These students are dedicated and talented. What a treat. I managed to take a few pictures and a short video (60 seconds) before my memory card was full- doh!
Sorry I couldn’t share more with you, enjoy.
