Kodo - O-Daiko - HD (japanese drummers - Taiko - tambours géants Japon)
Kodō (鼓童) ( « Kodo, un battement de coeur japonais rythmé par le taiko » : voir l'article et les vidéos) est un groupe de percussionnistes japonais originaire de l'ile de Sado. Son nom signifie « battement de coeur » et « enfant du tambour » en japonais. ( ).
Le collectif Kodo est formé en 1981 par d'anciens membres du groupe Ondekoza à la suite d'un différent entre Tagayasu (fondateur d'Ondekoza) et ses musiciens. Il perpétue et réinvente la tradition musicale japonaise, en explorant toutes les possibilités offertes par le taiko, tambour de peau tendue sur bois utilisé dans les fêtes traditionnelles.
Il parcourt le monde depuis le début des années 1980 pour diffuser son message « d'humanité partagée, de conscience environnementale et de paix ».

Ōdaiko : One of the most memorable drums of many taiko ensembles is the ōdaiko (大太鼓). For many, the ōdaiko solo is the embodiment of power due to the size of the drum, the volume, and the endurance it takes to perform. The ōdaiko is the largest drum of all taiko, if not the entire world. The largest ōdaiko are too big to move and permanently reside inside a temple or shrine. Ōdaiko means big taiko, but within any group, it describes the largest drum in an ensemble, which could mean 12 inches (300 mm) in diameter or 12 feet (3.7 m) in diameter. Made from a single piece of wood, some ōdaiko come from trees that are hundreds of years old.
Kodō (鼓童?) is a professional taiko drumming troupe. Based on Sado Island, Japan, they have had a role in popularizing taiko drumming, both in Japan and abroad. They regularly tour Japan, Europe, and the United States.
Although the main focus of the performance is taiko drumming, other traditional Japanese musical instruments such as fue and shamisen make an appearance on stage as do traditional dance and vocal performance. Kodo's performance include pieces based on the traditional rhythms of regional Japan, pieces composed for Kodo by contemporary songwriters, and pieces written by Kodo members themselves. The numbers that Kodo perform can change from concert to concert. Kodo's performance normally lasts for about one hour and forty minutes.
In Japanese the word Kodo conveys two meanings: heartbeat the primal source of all rhythm and, read in a different way, the word can mean children of the drum, a reflection of Kodo's desire to play their drums simply, with the heart of a child.
Kodo strives to both preserve and re-interpret traditional Japanese performing arts. From worldwide tours and research trips, Kodo brings back to Sado world music and experiences which now exert a strong influence on the group's performances and compositions. They also collaborate with other artists and composers.
Since their debut at the Berlin Festival in 1981, Kodo have given over 3,100 performances on five continents, spending about a third of the year overseas, a third touring in Japan and a third resting and preparing new material on Sado Island.

The Secret Love Letters Of Ono no Komachi in Taiko-an!
Taiko-an is a temple of the Rinzai sect and a sub-temple of Tofukuji Temple. Destroyed by fire during the Onin war in the 15th century, the temple lay waste until it was restored in 1599 by the warrior priest Ankokuji Ekei.
Plans for the decisive Sekigahara battle of 1600 were reputedly drawn in the Tea room within the Guest Hall. Jizo Hall houses a statue of the divinity Jizo. Numerous love letters to Ono-no-Komachi, a renowned beautiful woman of the Heian court were found inside the Jizo Statue.
Ono no Komachi was a famous Japanese waka poet, one of the Rokkasen—the Six best Waka poets of the early Heian period. She was noted as a rare beauty; Komachi is a symbol of a beautiful woman in Japan. She also figures among the Thirty-six Poetry Immortals.
As a poet, Komachi specialized in erotic love themes, expressed in complex poems. Most of her waka are about anxiety, solitude or passionate love. She is the only female poet referred to in the preface of the Kokin Wakashū, which describes her style as containing naivety in old style but also delicacy.
There are legends about Komachi in love. The most famous is a story about her relationship with Fukakusa no Shosho, a high-ranking courtier. Komachi promised that if he visited her continuously for a hundred nights, then she would become his lover. Fukakusa no Shosho visited her every night, but failed once towards the end. Despairing, he fell ill and subsequently died. When Komachi learned of his death she was overcome with sadness.
Ono no Komachi Poem:
Though I go to you
ceaselessly along dream paths,
the sum of those trysts
is less than a single glimpse
granted in the waking world.
The poem appears as No. 658 in the Kokin Wakashu, an old anthology of poems from the 12th century. Komachi was a classic even at that time: she lived in the 9th century.

新日山安国寺 不動院(Fudoin Temple)(japanisch Tempel)
（広島市牛田新町３－４－９）当寺が安国寺不動院と呼ばれる由縁は、足利尊氏、直義兄弟が日本六十余州に建立した安国寺の一寺であったことに由来します。以後、安芸安国寺として、又、安芸国守護武田氏の菩提寺として繁栄しました。しかし、戦国時代、安国寺の伽藍は焼け落ちてしまいました。当寺を復興したのが、戦国大名、毛利氏の外交僧として、又、豊臣秀吉直臣大名として戦国の世に名高い安国寺恵誙（あんこくじえけい）です。しかし関ヶ原の合戦で西軍に組みした恵誙（えけい）は非業の死をとげ、毛利氏も防長ニ国に国替えとなりました。毛利氏が去った後、福島正則が広島に入国しました。正則公の治世は二十年足らずで終わり、浅野公が新しい国主として、広島に入りました。Formerly one of the Ankoku-ji Temples built (around 1345)in various provinces by Takauji Ashikaga,reconstructed in the latter half of the sixteenth century by the seiso (political monk) Ekei.
After Masanori Fukushima converted to Shingon Buddhism, he named the temple Fudoin.

Okutsu Matsuri 2013, Taiko Performance
One of Japan's biggest and oldest camphor (kutsu) trees is located on the grounds of a shrine in Aira City, just north of Kagoshima City, at the south end of Kyushu island. This year, the festival dedicated to the tree was held on Nov. 16th and 17th. Like most matsuri, there were various food stalls, events and performances. Here, we have one of the best taiko performances I've seen in a long time. I've never seen anyone taking an axe to a drum before...
