Taiko Drumming

I really hope no one misses this event. This group of international artists are amazing. Yangjin Lamu is a pop star in Asia and this is her very first performance in the United States. Koji Nakamura can play 10 drums at once! Can you imagine being able to play well all those drums? It really will be a concert unlike any other that we have hosted or seen in Santa Fe. There is even Santa Fe's Poet and Musician, Madi Sato.
For those of you that do not know, Taiko Drumming is a Japanese Tradition that goes back centuries to music that was played in castles, courts, and warfare. Today there are four types of Taiko drumming that vary by the number, size, and method of playing.
Join us for this amazing performance at the James A. Little Theatre, Saturday, August 23 at 7:00 pm.
