TAIKOPROJECT has astonished audiences worldwide since 2000 with their unique blend of traditional taiko & innovative aesthetics. Percussive power, dynamic music, and graceful choreography work together to weave a gorgeous narrative you’ll have to see (and hear!) to believe!
TAIKOPROJECT’s powerful drumming unites ancient Japanese tradition with 21st century American innovation to create a riot of movement and thundering rhythm. It’s been called a tsunami of sound but this highly charged ensemble is so much more. This show will ignite all of your senses with a spell-binding mix of music, theater and precision. The group received international acclaim when it became the first American ensemble to win the prestigious Tokyo International Taiko Contest. Since then, it’s wowed audiences at the Academy Awards and the Grammys with its grace, energy and passion.
TAIKOPROJECT’s latest full-length concert program "BENZAITEN" is inspired by the Japanese goddess of wisdom, beauty, and dance. TAIKOPROJECT has always sought to break the boundaries of traditional taiko and create new music and choreography based in the art form, but expanding past its original expressions. In this latest work, they are challenging gender roles in taiko music and emphasizing the equity present in the genre in the past. But not only will they be showcasing their female members in powerful, strenuous roles, but also delving into their male members' delicacy and grace in a multi-layered exploration of taiko and gender.
