| Three Oni
(ogre like characters) gather around the taiko reeking havoc during
a ritualistic night of drumming. This piece is inspired by Gojinjo
Daiko which dates back to 1577 when villagers of Noto Peninsula bravely
beat war drums and wore ferocious looking masks with seaweed on their
heads in a bid to ward off invasion. |
