00:00 I've always wanted to produce an all-star concert.
00:05 Bring the best female taiko artists from Japan and from North America together and put women
00:13 center stage.
00:14 Okay, we're really doing this.
00:17 Yeah.
00:18 There are amazing female taiko players, but they're kind of scattered and kind of work
00:23 in isolation.
00:24 So happy you're here.
00:25 I'm from Sacramento, California.
00:26 I'm from Hawaii.
00:31 Tokyo.
00:32 My name is Megan Chasmith and I am a guest artist tonight.
00:36 And my wife.
00:37 In college, I discovered taiko.
00:38 It's the thing that kept me alive.
00:42 It was the first time that I feel fully showing who I am.
00:46 It's like a 20 years ago dream.
00:49 You're one of the best performers.
00:51 Well thank you, Mother.
00:52 The goal is for you to be yourself and I will try to weave us together for the concert.
01:01 Trust me, I'm not going to regret any of this.
01:08 This kind of gathering has not happened before.
01:11 First time is very risky.
01:15 There's a lot of competition and jockeying, but we're not supposed to be like that because
01:20 we're women and we support each other.
01:22 It was like a pressure cooker.
01:24 So all your triggers get triggered.
01:26 Rehearsal, rehearsal, concert.
01:28 What am I doing?
01:30 The time is approaching and how are we going to hold this together?
01:34 I don't know.
01:36 Me, Shukang.
01:37 I'm very back.
01:38 It's special.
01:39 Why is it that we think that we don't belong?
01:44 We deserve to do this work.
01:47 Please gather your power, your energy, your love to our sound.
01:52 Then it will be our beat.
01:55 Okay, let's do it.
