FEATURING SATSUKI ODAMURA (BASS KOTO)

Australia’s world-acclaimed taiko drumming ensemble, TaikOz, presents a stunning new work. Introspection, meditative melodies and sheer explosive might sit alongside light-hearted exuberance in TaikOz’s Crimson Sky.

The thunderous drumming of the taiko is interwoven with the hypnotic melodies of the shakuhachi and shinobue bamboo flutes, voice and a rare performance on the bass koto, a traditional Japanese 17-stringed plucked instrument to be played by special guest artist Satsuki Odamura.

Based on a haiku by Japanese poet Miura Yuzuru, Toward The Crimson Sky has been written by TaikOz rtistic Director Ian Cleworth, evoking the poem’s sensual, dramatic and often playful imagery of a cloud of dragonflies ascending into a deep red sky.

The program will also feature new works by the two youngest TaikOz members: from the peaceful meditation of Solace by Tom Royce-Hampton to the dynamic high energy of Exploration by Anton Lock, featuring the virtuosity of the drum set pitted against the dynamic high energy of the taiko.
