Taiko On! The name is not only a team cheer to beat the drum with all one’s spirit and energy, the Japanese characters also represent the meaning "Sound of the Drum”.
The members of this energetic troupe have come together to study the festival music of Japan, and train with a dedication to perform at their highest level. As a team, they display their love of Taiko with dynamic synchronised actions, stylised movements, and powerful rhythms.
ONSEN
About this event
ONSEN - [soundbath] be ready for your yearly outing to bathe in the sound of Taiko. Immerse yourself in the sonic warmth of the world’s deepest and most resonant musical instruments. Submerge in sound and feel the bodily reverberation as fluid morphing soundscapes wash through you.
Inspired by the penetrating relaxation of the unique Japanese Onsen (hot spring bath) this unmissable experience unites traditional Japanese drums and mantra, experimental percussion, Australia’s earthy didgeridoo and much more. Presented by lead performers of Taiko On - Perth’s Premier Japanese Drums and Festival Music Ensemble.
