TAIKOPROJECT + Ryutaro Kaneko: LifeRhythm

Performing Arts
In Person

Date: April 19, 2014

Time: 7:30 p.m.



LifeRhythm seamlessly blends the sublime virtuosity of renowned percussionist Ryutaro Kaneko with the undeniable energy of TAIKOPROJECT, an ensemble of premiere taiko drummers committed to preserving and advancing the Japanese art of taiko in the U.S. From the small Japanese cymbals known as chappa to the five-foot-diameter, 300-pound Ohira drum, LifeRhythm showcases a variety of taiko instruments, as well as the yokobue (Japanese bamboo flute), marimba, and koto (Japanese harp), in an unforgettable heart-pounding experience.
