Extended Schools Junior Taiko

video

Here's a recent performance by our most recently formed junior Taiko group taught by James Barrow. This was the first time any of them had ever taken part in a perfmance of any kind. The profile of the groups is unusual, but important. These students are all doing Taiko as part of an extended schools initiative to help broaden their experiences and develop confidence and team skills. They were incredibly nervous... but did a great job of this arrangement of a piece taught to them by James over 5 weeks (45 minutes per session).
