Kumamoto Castle
Though many of Japan’s medieval castles have been destroyed over the years, some have been preserved and rebuilt. Kumamoto Castle in southern Japan is considered one of the most impressive, with a moat and massive walls surrounding the castle and its peaceful gardens. This marimba solo should have a very delicate and calm sound (even when it gets faster) to give the feeling of the quiet gardens of Kumamoto.
The video contains "home movies" from one of my trips to Japan including Mount Aso and the Kumamoto Castle.
