Kodō

Single tickets go on sale August 4.

For more than four decades, Kodō has toured the world under its “One Earth” banner, uniting audiences across cultures through the resonant, pulse-pounding power of taiko drumming. In Luminance, the ensemble presents signature works refined over years of global touring, including the mighty O-daiko drum solo and the climactic, high-energy Yatai-bayashi finale. The program also honors Maki Ishii’s evocative “Monochrome” and, for the first time in decades, features bold, genre-crossing original compositions by guest artists.

Superlatives don’t really exist to convey the primal power and bravura beauty of Kodō.
