Taiko Drumming
College Park residents Kristen Koyama and Mark H Rooney are joined by Erika Ninoyu and Kota Mizutani to perform “taiko” – a celebratory Japanese style of dynamic drumming based in festival music tradition (“matsuri bayashi”) but infused with a contemporary sensibility. Often referred to as “full-body drumming”, the physicality of the techniques combine with the fluid movements to create a visual language. www.markhtaiko.com
