Zenshin Daiko’s Annual Taiko Festival Concert will be a celebration of outstanding musicianship played with upbeat fun and boundless heart. The nonprofit organization is dedicated to teaching taiko to children and has grown from a small, local taiko group to one that has achieved national and international recognition. Since forming in 1999, Zenshin Daiko has given over 1,000 performances worldwide. Zenshin Daiko has also been recognized as a leading builder of taiko drums from used wine barrels, building most of their own drums and helping to repair taiko for other groups. They will be joined by the Peaceful Forest, a lovely group consisting of Takumi Kato an independent Japanese Taiko drum artist and his three children. Online ticket sales only.
