We were very pleased to have great friend and musician, Kaoru Watanabe, visit LATI this week. He taught two workshops on fue (Japanese flute) and one on taiko fundamentals. Below is an interview I conducted by phone regarding his philosophy of the basic taiko strike.
KB - What are you teaching in the Taiko Fundamentals workshop at LATI?
I received my first LATIdama from Kris today!
After a fun-filled PEAC Week bringing the first LATI term to a close, I'm very excited about my next set of classes. Thank you to everyone who has registered. This is going to be fun!
Registration for 12-week courses is open for another week or so. Learn more about the classes and join us!
The Institute's LATIdama system uses beads to represent particular taiko skills tested at the completion of several courses. Last term, eight players earned their beads! LATIdama will be presented in each student's next class with the LATIdama Presentation Ceremony. These players are now qualified to take courses with their LATIdama prerequisite, and to mentor others trying to earn their LATIdama. Fun fun!
