Nagata Shachu: 10th Anniversary Concert

Nagata Shachu

This was unveiled at Baxter's 2009 sales conference and will be used to promote their line of chemotherapy infusers.

Nagata Shachu is a Japanese taiko drumming and music group based in Toronto and is run by Kiyoshi Nagata. It's really cool stuff and Kiyoshi is a totally nice guy. (Sometimes they do finish first!)

The staging of the numbers is quite theatrical. The music ranges from traditional to modern, and can be rather cheeky. And all the members are terrific drummers, energetic and athletic. In fact, they're so energetic that I have to eat a bag of chips after watching them.

Don't forget the necessary Flash and QuickTime players.
