Back by popular demand, taiko sensation Drum Tao returns with their intensely energetic, highly
visual, and pulse-pounding take on the ancient art of Japanese drumming. Merging a Samurai
ethos with a rock ‘n’ roll attitude, Drum Tao presents an unforgettable show that is a feast for the
senses. Athletic bodies and contemporary costumes blend with pulsating rhythms, captivating
choreography, and vibrant sets. See the world’s top male and female taiko drumming masters
perform traditional songs and contemporary compositions, showcasing an assortment of drums
from small handheld snare drums to large-scale odaiko drums. Founded more than 25 years ago
in Kyushu, Japan, Tao stands for The Martial Art of Drumming, a fact emphasized in the sheer
physicality and muscular zeal of the group’s performances. “Extraordinarily talented percussion
artists, and they’re seductive, alluring performers” (Chicago Tribune).
Hylton Performing Arts Center is at 10960 George Mason Circle, Manassas, VA.
