    I discovered Kyoto Tachibana SHS by chance on youtube six months ago. Since then, this music with the fantastic girls has never let me go. I have read everything that I could find on the net so far and I listen to at least three hours of music from KT EVERY DAY. It's like an addiction. Everything fits together in a perfection that I have never seen or heard before. My tip, I do it exactly like this: I sit very close in front of my 55 inch smart TV with headphones on. Connected with a cable, not with bluetooth, because bluetooth always creates a slight delay between the picture and the music. And because of the big picture and the good stereo sound, I feel like I'm at the event. It fascinates me and I can't get away from it. Greetings from Bavaria in Germany.

    All of the teaching of the dancing, and choreography, is done by the students themselves. No adults involved other than the music teacher who gathers them in one room for group practice. The rest of the time, the seniors ("3rd graders") do all of the work, making it all happen. Only in Japan!

      It was longer than that! The amazing thing is that the band's founder, Professor Hiramatsu, turned 83 on Jan. 1, 2018. He was at the parade and HE walked alongside the band during the 5+ mile march!!! Let that one sink in! That being said, the band wore their normal cheap $15 flat soled shoes during the parade. There were reports that many of them had bloody feet afterwards. Ouch!

    Hey I know I'm late, but you should see their 2018 Rose parade march in Pasadena, California. There are man, many videos and compilations on TH-cam of this one event, varying in quality, because this was possibly their most incredible performance. It's a 5.5 mile (8km) long march and these incredible band members knocked it out of the park that year. they attend every 2 - 3 years. They played and danced the entire way with only brief intermissions between songs. "Sing sing sing" is their most famous song, and pretty much their unofficial theme song and dance. There are videos of them performing the same song and dance dating back as far as 2012 on TH-cam - and the high school has rotated many, many students since then. Each year you see them perform, there are always new students - but they practice towards perfection. i first saw their 2012 Disneyland performance that year and have been following their performances ever since. Such incredible talent and joy and passion these students have in what they do.

    I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, instant thumbs up from me as I was the one that recommended it and was so happy to see you reacting to it. I remembered you saying you were in Japan, I didn't know you were so close to Kyoto or that you worked in a high school when I recommended it, but even more glad I did now. I love DCI and watch the performances on TH-cam a lot, and happened to see this band in the Rose Parade and instantly fell in love with them. Seeing your reactions to DCI videos, I knew you would enjoy this as well. As one of the comments said, I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see them in person, the amount of energy they give off and those big beautiful smiles they always have would melt even the meanest of people's hearts. When ever you feel down and need a pick-me-up, this band will surely do the trick. There are a bunch of videos on TH-cam showing their practices and they do put in a LOT of time practicing like all school clubs in Japan do. Thank you SOOOOO much for doing this, it's now my favorite reaction video that you've done. I look forward to your next video, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

    Courtney, the Rose Parade is held every new year day in Pasadena!
    The Japanese are always invited to send a school band to take part in the Bandfest competition, which on most occasions they win and then they take part in the actual parade of 6 miles mesmerising the crowds with an incredible song book and choreography and after that they will hold a charity concert to raise money for people affected in global disasters. You need to look on the internet for the Japanese High School Band’s, which Tachibana has won on a few occasions and to win that Gold prize is really really hard as the standard from all is extremely high. If you live down the road, you go and visit and witness them rehearsing ( you lucky thing ),as you said they totally dedicated to the band and it’s the senior members who work with the new joiners to put them through and encourage them to meet the standards needed to become a band member ( normally about 150-200 in the band).

      I suspect they got the idea for slapping hands with bystanders while they were in America. It's not a particularly Japanese thing to do. I was actually really excited to see their Rose Bowl performance because Japanese and Asian audiences usually have a "polite appreciation" reaction while Americans tend towards more effusive outward expression, and I really wanted them to have that experience.

    As a dancer, for a 200 member dance team to dance and be all in sync like Tachibana dancing is an exhausting, incredible, and amazing feat in itself. But to do that, and at the same time, also be able to play a musical instrument well and perfectly in tune with each other is beyond amazing.
    And to be able to do all of that for two and a half hours covering 5.5 miles or nearly 9 kilometers is just unbelievably insane. And not to mention the fact that while doing all of that, Tachibana are still able to smile and and exude joy and happiness to the crowd throughout the trek...it’s hard to believe that they’re even human.

It is my understanding that they have to be proficient on 2 instruments, and obviously have the ability to remember all the routines and they must be extremely fit to do all that marching, dance moves and playing their instruments i mean there are videos over 1.75 hours and they do not stop, I agree they are the best marching band in the world at this level.

    Please view some of the other Kyoto Tachibana SHS videos, competitions, not just street marching. There are hundreds on the web. There are few boys in the band due to the boys choosing baseball and soccer to play in high school. The band members practice four hours per day and eight hours on Saturday and Sunday besides their full class workload. To me, they are the top high school band in the world.

Lots of people have given her the name Penguin Chan!..

The school was all girls and forced to go co-ed, that's why so few guys. Did you notice that they didn't use music scores. All memory/practice.

    I would definitely recommend watching the field show that they performed while they were there. It is the 2018 Pasadena Rose field show, their performance put everyone else to shame that day. Plus you get to see them honoring a special student in the band that was born with only one leg. She wears a prosthetic leg and this was her last year as she was a senior that year. She had performed with the group her entire high school career. The funny thing is if you don't look carefully you would never know she had a prosthetic leg, she moves and dances so naturally.

    Those band members spend about 38 hours a week training and practicing. No teachers are involved except for administrative, mentoring tasks. Courtney, you would be familiar with the senpai-kohai dynamic among the seniors, juniors and freshmen at high schools in Japan, so that would easily translate to the work ethic of these kids. To find out more, there's a lively discussion at the KT unofficial fan blog, where one of the contributors hosted some of the students from KT back in 2017-2018 for the Rose Parade, and again this year when some of them returned as part of the composite "All Japan" Honor band.
    Note that one of the students playing the flute, a senior at that time, has a prosthetic leg, but was determined to be part of the band, successfully performed the entire routine, and the 5.5 miles (about 9km) of the RP. Oh yeah, she returned again this year to repeat the whole thing with the composite band.

    Tachibgana is the name of a wild orange tree which is the ancestor of modern mandarin oranges, so the yellow and orange is appropriate, but they also have blue and gold uniforms, a blue and white uniform which is used once a year, and in hot weather they sometimes wear T shirts and warmup pants.
    They were in Disneyland as part of their 3028 Rose Bowl Trip. THere are lots of videos of them in the ROse Parade. The longest ones take from an hour and 5 minutes to and hour and almost 39 minutes. One of them contains a post parade interview in Japanese with the one legged flutist, who looks like she just came back from a walk around the block.
    Ialso recommend th-cam.com/video/FFcSbz7iH0M/w-d-xo.html It starts out with a street parade of which they do a lot, but then moves to the finals of the 2015 All Japan National Marching Band Competition. The one legged flautist is in this as a freshman and was a senior in the 2017-2018 Rose Tournament events. The Sing Sing Sing finale is far more intense than at Disneyland, They won Gold for a nearly perfect performance/

    you just watched the best band in the world, but what you watched is nothing of what this band Tachibana does, they really do everything that has to do with music and dance, and everything so perfect that other bands can't manage to imitate them just a little, but you should definitely recognize the perfect when you stay in Japan, Japan is the country where I think perfection was invented, and then they are great people, kindly respectful and always friendly ..
    These girls and those few boys go to school 7 days a week, I have been told, they have a very heavy program according to reports that they have to do every day ...
    You notice that I am a big fan, that happened quite a few years ago, I read and watched everything about Japan, is so beautiful country and culture that I was really in love with Japan, until one day I once Tachibana came by, i was really sold, i didn't know what i saw, while i was a rock music man, but today i look more at tachibana than rock music

      Those Sousaphones are fiberglass - makes them lighter but no easier to play. All the kids in the band audiition. Band is not a required course.

    • @nigsbalchin226
      @nigsbalchin226 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The first version of the Sousaphone came out in 1893, it was called 'the rain catcher' because the horn opening was directed straight up. A couple of years later the design was adapted to allow the horn to be angled forward over the player's head.
      The Sousaphone is a redevelopment of the Tuba with marching and standing band performances in mind.
      Some bands still use the Tuba, and seeing a HUGE Tuba delicately balanced on the shoulder of a band member as he marches along, for the first time, is shocking. It's still an eye-opener when seeing it for the umpteenth time.

    How often did they stop to say "hi" to the crowd just to get back to their music? Cute.

      It depends on the venue. Occasionally when the are not actively playing in a parade they will give someone a high five as they march by, especially kids. The Sakura and Blumen Hügel parades are where you see it most often.

    There may have been more than one fan to recommend Kyoto Tachinbana to you -- I know that I did. Whenever I am creatively stuck, I watch one of their many videos. They always make me smile.
    By the way, those "big things" are called "sousaphones," after the March King John Philip Sousa, who composed the Stars and Stripes Forever. They're essentially tubas designed to be carried. The Tachibana examples are made out of fiberglass instead of brass to save weight.

    I often wonder how big the Kyoto Tachibana Marching Band would be if they were marketed and promoted. As big and as popular as they are, as far as I know, they don’t even have a Facebook page or a TH-cam channel. Everything about them are created by fans. It’s kind of funny that a lot Tachibana members don’t even know about the many fan-based websites created for discussion and appreciation of them.

    You know when I typed in Kyoto Tachibana and I found this reaction video I didn’t know what to think. The reason being is that reaction videos are a trend in TH-cam, but this video, as far as I know, is the first reaction video of Tachibana, perhaps the best and most popular marching band in the world and definitely the most beloved and charming marching band in the world.
    I would love to see more reaction videos of Tachibana in the future, especially by marching band directors and professional musicians with their take and analysis on Tachibana.

    Check out their appearance in the 2018 Rose Parade or 2015 National championships or Pasadena Bandfest. Also note the girl on xylophone. She could smile for Japan. BTW one of the girls there has a prosthetic leg. She never missed a step or a note. Your video only popped up because you put Kyoto Tachibana in the title. アイルランド出身です and i am only learning Japanese because I was inspired by this band. Reina and Cony Okomoto in particular. Dedication like we do not even understand in the west. You want cute look at the one they call miss penguin (percussion) but really they are all stars.

    I'm not sure about best band in the world, as that would depend on what you value. If it's precision marching or sound quality, there probably is better. However, for pure entertainment, this band is hard to beat. Check out their other videos including those of stage shows and marching contests. They absolutely killed it at the 2018 Rose Parade, no other band got the cheers they did. I've been a Tachibanaholic since watching one of their videos about 18 months ago. Watching them perform live is on my bucket list for sure.

      Darrel Natori, Tachibana’s main goal is to entertain people and bring them smiles and happiness. In that department, no band in the world even comes close to them.
      Of course, Tachibana are still extremely talented musically and they are like pro athletes and dancers. Again, in that department no one even comes close to them.
      If you weigh on the overall package of a marching band, I can’t even think of any band, and I’ve watched a lot of them, that’s even near Tachibana’s level, let alone besting them.
