GW Lisner Auditorium presents Yamato: Drummers of Japan
Yamato combines a sense of drama and strong percussion with the most
“physical” form of music – Taiko drumming. Yamato’s drumming ranges
from the delicate patter of raindrops to rolling thunder to a
heartbeat. Yamato combines drums with the timpani, flute, and colorful,
authentic Japanese costumes for an evening of highly charged rhythm.
“Phenomenal skill and ferocity somewhere between
the seriousness of samurai and the crazed exhibitionism of heavy-metal
rock drummers.” – The Telegraph (UK)
