With a
massive six-foot diameter drum made from a 400-year-old tree as their
centerpiece, the highly skilled musicians of YAMATO play 40 taikos of
various sizes, blending phenomenally powerful and dramatic drumming with
music of delicate beauty and humor. Athleticism, superhuman feats of
coordination and incredible intensity are the trademarks of this
irresistible ensemble. YAMATO infuses its performances of their SHIN-ON
Tour with the idea that the drumbeat, like the heartbeat, is the very
pulse of life: “We beat, hoping that the heartbeat we make will become
energy for tomorrow.” This energy will fill the Cailloux Theater!
