A conversation between thunder and rain

People are missing the most insane part, where the drummer breaks the baton at 13:15 and just swaps it out for a new one without skipping a beat!
-
This should've been the opening ceremony at the Japan Olympics.
-
Eitetsu was about 60 when this was recorded. He is 70+ now and still strong as hell. He doesnt age.
-
Imagine if they played this during the combat sport events in the Olympics...
-
Only 1400's kid remembers this...
-
Shamisen is very hard to play so the fact that he was playing for that long that fast and absolutely shredding it at that intensity is veeeery impressive. Much respect
-
I bet ya these guys would have never thought that some dude on the other side of the world would come across an actual video of their work and be jamming seriously hard to it. Multiple times.

Just listening to this gave me back muscles

Forget Old School Music, this is Ancient School Music.

I feel like people always dismiss percussionists as having the easy role. "LMAO, you're just hitting stuff with a stick!" Watch that drummer, the absolute mastery he has over his instrument, how careful his movements actually are, listen to his dynamics. He is a true virtuoso. I don't care if you're listening to Japanese classical music, western classical music, or pop music, NEVER dismiss your percussionists. They can make or break the entire performance.
-
8:36 this part where the drummer repeats the notes of the shamisen player is amazing. A fantastic performance by both of them
-
Everybody's talking about the taiko drum, but man, that shamisen is crazy too!
-
Came for big drum. Stayed 15 min for two masters.
-
I'm not Japanese but for some reason I'm so attached to this style of music I feel it in my soul
-
本当に日本に生まれて良かったと思う
-
This is actually the earliest known speed metal song.

Neighbour: Please be quiet! Me, against the walls:
-
14:12 the most wholesome moment I've seen in the music scene, period. He humbly stepped down as a sign of respect to the shamisen master. 👌
-
the stamina to play this intensely for 14 minutes straight and not miss a beat is seriously impressive
