Experience the heartbeat of Japanese drumming resonating throughout the Adult High School Auditorium on Saturday, April 4, as Oto-Wa Taiko celebrates 20 years of bringing taiko performing arts to the National-Capital Region. This special 20th Anniversary "ARIGATO" Concert honours the tremendous community support we have received over the past two decades of establishing a taiko tradition in Ottawa.
An active contributor to the Ottawa performing arts scene, Oto-Wa Taiko will present a rich variety of traditional pieces, arrangements and original compositions in a powerful programme of dynamic rhythms. The concert will also feature a short performance by Dagaku, Ottawa's very own children's taiko group and the future of the taiko performing arts community for the next 20 years to come.
Bring your family and friends to enjoy this wonderful opportunity to experience the power of taiko drumming. Get your tickets early. In 2004, Oto-Wa Taiko sold out its 15th Anniversary Concert.
