Yamato Drummers

Company of master drummers who bring the ancient art of taiko drumming into the 21st century with exhilarating displays of expertise and athleticism that have thrilled audiences worldwide.

"Taiko drumming is a physical and musical spectacle. The drums can measure up to six feet across, which requires powerful stamina to play. Yamato's nine performers display their breathtaking expertise on over 20 drums, varying from huge barrel-like Odaikos to hand-held instruments. Combined with exquisite bronze cymbals, vocals and bamboo flutes, Yamato create a kaleidoscope of sound."
