"The Percussionist"
Equipment: Nikon F90x Date: November 2000
I will have to do some research, because I know these percussion teams have an official Japanese name. These were a series of elementary schools which teach this art as an extracurricular activity. What impressed me the most was the ability of the instructors to get children this young to be that much in sync and rhythm. I say this mainly because I've walked down the street with Japanese folks, and they are the most uncoordinated people I've run across (or into). But these kids were great and made the food festival a lot of fun.
