One Earth Tour 2027: Luminance

Program:
The drummers of Kodo return to Berkeley showcasing their athleticism, choreography, and earth-shattering sounds drawn from enormous drums that conjure ancient rituals. The new production Luminance celebrates both the troupe’s 45th anniversary and taiko’s ability to stir the soul. The performance features highlights from Kodo’s most popular tours, including the mighty o-daiko drum solo and climactic “Yatai-Bayashi” finale, and a tribute to Maki Ishii’s dynamic taiko composition “Monochrome,” which involves 10 drums and two large, deeply resonant gongs.
