Tao Japanese Drummers - Toronto concert

TAO Japanese Drummers is a company of martial arts drummers trained in traditional Japanese percussion who use their entire body to express the music they create. The drumming ensemble, made up of 13 men and women, work, train and live together ? a cross between the ancient monks and an elite army boot camp.
Created by a former punk drummer who was inspired by Cirque du Soleil?s integration of Japanese taiko drumming into circus arts, TAO also draws on other sources such as Korean dancing and drumming, Indonesian bamboo marimba, and New Zealand?s Maori people to create a raucous contemporary, combative concert.
