Passion meets tradition with the explosive energy of YAMATO: The Drummers of Japan. The internationally acclaimed group performs a powerhouse program featuring over 40 traditional Taiko drums, each with its own unique character and sound.From the massive 1,100-pound “Odaiko,” crafted from a 400-year-old tree, to smaller drums with intricate tones, the performance creates a complex soundscape of rhythm and harmony.
Founded over 30 years ago in Nara Prefecture, said to be the birthplace of Japanese culture and civilization, YAMATO travels the world to share this longstanding cultural tradition.
In this spectacular show, the highly skilled, athletic drummers channel the heartbeat and spirit of their homeland. Japanese Taiko drumming is truly an electrifying experience like no other, and YAMATO represents the best of the best.
