"SEN-RAI" is a new generation Japanese music unit that seriously reflects the essence of Japanese traditional entertainment through Tsugaru shamisen and Taiko drum. This group expresses new Japanese music that arises from the sensibility of the younger generation.
Played by a seven-member ensemble, "SEN-RAI" makes the best use of the characteristics of each Japanese instrument, and while not ignoring the traditional power of taiko, highlights the ensemble nature of the group.
"SEN-RAI" comprises four taiko drum players (Koki Miura, Eisuke Chisaka, Yosuke Ishida, Kyo Chiba, all members of "Taiko drum unit IKI"), and three award-winning shamisen players from the Shibata family (Masato, Yuri and Ai).
Production of "SEN-RAI" is due to Syu Chiba (concept direction) and Mitsuaki Sato (overall production).
"SEN-RAI" aims to produce music that affects people with the power of a bolt of lightning!

Of us want to express sincere thanks most Incidentally, whereas our organisation is based on primordial Shinto, it is closely related to the tradition of Judaism. Goshintai, the object of worship housed in our shrine, is called "a hidden treasure of Israel." The Tsuji family in charge of the shrine is descendants of Emperor Uda (867-931). On the other hand, according to one account, it is descendants of the lost ten Israelite tribes. Nishiki-no-miya has two emblems. One is the emblem combining the sun, the moon, and the cross, and another the twelve-petaled chrysanthemum crest. Both of them symbolise the Creator-God's will to realise the everlasting ideal world in which all mankind and creatures live harmoniously and joyfully.
