History
Because they were the only instruments that could be heard across the entire battlefield, Nagado were used in battle to issue commands and coordinate movements in 16th century Japan. Currently the Nagado is used widely in shrines and temples, traditional festivals, and in concerts of ensemble music. They are often featured as the main instrument in Taiko performances.
