Taking its name from founder Kiyoshi Nagata, and shachu (an old term for a performing troupe), Nagata Shachu has become renowned for both rejuvenating and reinventing Japanese Taiko drumming. Only these drummers aren't simply musicians-skillfully combining thunderous, primal drumbeats with subtle, intricate rhythms-they are also athletes and performers, and the result is an unforgettable experience that is both powerful in expression and heartfelt in its sincerity.
