Yamato: The Drummers of Japan bring their fast-paced spectacle of drumming athleticism to Arts Commons in February. Having thrilled millions of audience members around the globe since their founding in 1993, Yamato is dedicated to showcasing the undeniable dynamism of Japan’s traditional Wadaiko drums. The drums range hugely in size, allowing for earth-shaking bass to the most delicate tempo. Combine this with dance, costume, and a flare for the dramatic and you have one heart-pounding evening of contagious rhythm.
“Taiko drumming is a visual and auditory feast combining sheer physical stamina with musical spectacle to provide and exhilarating show that is guaranteed to leave a smile on your face and a spring in your step when leaving the theatre. – The Public Reviews
Part of BD&P World Music presented by Arts Commons.
