大太鼓 ŌDAIKO SYMBOLISM, THE GODS’S CENTURIES OLD RELATIVISTIC VEHICLES SOME ŌDAIKO COME FROM TREES THAT ARE HUNDREDS OF YEARS OLD One of the most memorable drums of many taiko ensembles is the ōdaiko (大太鼓). For many, the ōdaiko solo is the embodiment of power due to the size of the drum, the volume, and the endurance it takes to perform. The ōdaiko is the largest drum of all taiko, if not the entire world. The largest ōdaiko are too big to move and permanently reside inside a temple or shrine. Ōdaiko means big taiko, but within any group, it describes the largest drum in an ensemble, which could mean 12 inches (300 mm) in diameter OR 12 FEET (3.7 M) IN DIAMETER.
