Review of Crossing East: Shasta Taiko


This is an interesting piece about the roots of an ancient Japanese music in America -- including the important cultural milleu that spawned it and how it's grown up. The music underneath is great and you get a real sense of the important mission for the players and how the music becomes fills a cultural need for those who hear it. This piece would fit well dropped into ATC or ME, or anywhere a good music piece is desired.
