Just discovered these three things and this one was by far my favourite of them, I love it, its like totally different music to what we have nowadays. I love and can't stop listening to it. Awesome.
The beauty of these instruments appears to me to be in the minimalism, again another domain (i.e. musical instruments of kabuki) of Japanese culture where it seems to me Zen-Buddhism is somewhat instantiated. In western classical music instruments generally have such a variety of sounds and you can easily focus on the melody of one instrument, then switch to listening to the other, and so on, and so forth; sure, the composition is a lovely whole, but intuitively you focus on one instrument at a time. Here, however, the sounds that can be produced by the otsuzumi, kotsuzumi or taiko are quite simple and don't have that much variety, much like a vibraslap in western music e.g., yet together in such an ensemble it forms the most captivating and enchanting whole; an ambience is created, the listener is captured and enjoys the beautiful whole, where it's relatively difficult to focus on and hear the individual instruments and intuitively you focus on the whole. The fact that such a beautifully mesmerising ambience results based on, of themselves, instruments with little variety in sound is where I think again we see how minimalism can lead to incredible beauty - in the ensemble as a whole it's just right, kanpeki, tamashii, nan to iu. Also, an incredible performance, the amount of practicing and concentration, every hit on the otsuzumi is perfectly performed. Finally, a fun fact, I actually got interested in music in kabuki/noh by the intro in episodes of the anime Kurozuka. If I'm not mistaken that intro is inspired by both kabuki and noh music/performance and blends the two forms of theatre.
Its Not kabuki. Its called Noh. Kabuki is a type of comedic entertainment and drama. Noh is a traditional entertainment. Dance and music. Tokugawa and other people in the edo period enjoyed Noh.
It's a shimedaiko(締太鼓). There are many types of shimedaiko and most of them use thicker drumheads tightened with bolts and turnbuckles. This one here however uses thin drumheads tightened with ropes, and is the only type used for Kabuki and Noh performances. Generally sold for around $800-$1200 USD.
I've been researching kabuki for a few days now and I can tell you that Naruto has a lot of kabuki references and conventions used in its music, characters, lore and even some of the visuals within the series. It has made me appreciate the anime/manga a lot, and discovering kabuki has been such an incredible experience.
Hi! My name is Chaya Gonzales and I and two of my colleagues are currently in the process of making a series of soundscapes that depict paintings from overlooked female artists across history. For one of our pieces depicting "Night Scene in the Yoshiwara" by Katsushika Ōi, we would like to incorporate this song as a part of that soundscape. Would that be possible, and if so, how would we be able to credit you? I sent you an email as wel with more information. Hope to hear back!
