Satsuma biwa & African drum duo Gajin ?? - Reijin Posted by: Obakedake
Video duration: 288 seconds Sorry for the poor sound quality; I recorded this with my mobile phone. Gajin is a duo consisting of myself on Satsuma biwa and my friend playing the African djembe (also known as the jimbay). His drum has a wooden head instead of the usual leather one which gives a very rich sound! Here we perform our song "Reijin" to a slideshow of Japanese art. Please leave your comments!
