太鼓の響きで人びとの感情を呼び覚まし、つながりを創りなおす | Taiko Performing Arts Ensemble YUI | TEDxKumamoto
太鼓芸能集団「紬衣」:太鼓の響きで人びとの感情を呼び覚まし、つながりを創りなおすその昔、人びとが集まる合図であった太鼓。
音を鳴らせば、数キロメートル離れた人にも届く。
母体の中で聴いた鼓動に似たその懐かしい響きを聴けば、シャイな日本人も反応せずにはいられない。
人びとが集まってくると、鐘の音や笛のメロディーも加わって、身体が動き笑顔がこぼれる。
言葉にできない思いも熱も伝え合える。
人びとの希薄になったリアルな繋がりを今、太鼓の力で創りなおす。Taiko Performing Arts Ensemble ”YUI”:
The sound of drums awakens people's emotions and rebuilds connections.Long ago, drums served as a signal for people to gather.
When struck, their sound could reach people kilometers away.
Hearing that nostalgic sound, reminiscent of the heartbeat heard in the womb, even shy Japanese people cannot help but respond.
As people gather, the sound of bells and Japanese flute melodies join in, bodies move, and smiles spread.
Feelings and passion that cannot be put into words are shared.
Now, the power of the taiko drum is rebuilding the real connections that have grown thin.
Existence that connects souls through the sound of taiko drums.
The taiko drum performance group based in Uto City, Kumamoto Prefecture, aims to introduce the Uto Big Drum culture to the world, pursue the potential of taiko drum from various angles and spread it to society. Their goal is to connect people through the resonance of the taiko drum.
In 2016, they earned the highest grade of 5 stars rating from Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
In 2017, they performed at the Yuzu 20th Anniversary Concert "Harebutai."
With the tradition and history of the Uto Big Drum as their root, they aim to reinvent and share it with the world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
