YAMATO

The Drummers of Japan


A fusion of high-energy drumming, music, and theater, YAMATO takes the best elements of traditional Taiko and presents them with the humor and vigor of STOMP. Founded in Nara, “the land of Yamato” which is said to be the birthplace of Japanese culture, YAMATO travels around the world with Japan’s traditional Wadaiko drums, putting the musicians’ very souls into the unusual instruments, stirring the hearts of people everywhere. Performances are infused with the idea that the drumbeat, like the heartbeat, is the very pulse of life. Since its formation almost a decade ago, YAMATO has played to more than a million people, giving
over 1,000 performances in a dozen different countries. This is a perfect performance for families of all ages.
