KODO Drummers of Japan
January 28, 2009, 8:00 pm
Orpheum Theatre, Vancouver
Since ancient times the taiko has been a symbol of community, serving as a link among people, as well as a link between people and the heavens. Through the ‘One Earth Tour,’ Kodo continues to bring the sound of the Japanese drum to the ears of the world, and with the taiko’s unique ability to transcend the barriers of language and custom, remind us all of our membership in that larger community.
Exploring the limitless possibilities of the traditional Japanese drum, the taiko, Kodo forges new directions for a vibrant living art-form. Kodo last appeared in Vancouver in 2005, with a show that completely sold out the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. Tickets are on sale now for the group’s appearance January 28, 2009, 8pm at the Orpheum Theatre. Don’t miss this rare opportunity so see one of the planet’s most exciting and spectacular events.
