Talk:Ōtsuzumi

Picture
The picture on this page is a practical joke. That's not an okawa/otsuzumi, it is a larger wadaiko. Someone please find and put a correct picture please.

 * Is this acceptable? It is what is shown on the Japanese page.Traveler100 (talk) 06:45, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * added to page as no feedback


 * In retrospect, the Japanese page you are refering to only specifies the kotsuzumi; there is no otsuzumi page in Japanese. Perhaps they don't view the larger and/or smaller versions of the drums separately?KogeJoe (talk) 13:37, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

No, that is a picture of a tsuzumi, also known as a kotsuzumi (小鼓) or "shoulder drum." The okawa/otsuzumi is larger, and the heads are of a leathery appearance and not as ornate.Kogejoe (talk) 06:54, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I removed the picture in the article, as it is not the picture of an ōkawa. Please don't put it back on, thank you.KogeJoe (talk) 08:41, 11 June 2010 (UTC) Must agree, that is not an okawa/otsuzumi, it is the tsuzumi/kotsuzumi. The picture needs to be changed to show the correct instrument.Solar3939 (talk) 02:42, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
