Amanojaku is led by Yoichi Watanabe, Hiromi Ogawa and Mayumi Kawana.
Amanojaku's forte is Watanabe's superb compositions that blend elements of modern music with the roots of Tokyo-style festival music.
No other taiko group in the world boasts such strong original compositions, which are narratives of Watanabe's creative vision that is constantly evolving.
