For more than four decades, the taiko drumming masters of Kodo have traveled the globe, channeling the elemental power of rhythm and sound and demonstrating how taiko transcends borders and cultures.

In Luminance, Kodo reflects on its past while illuminating new creative paths forward. The program features signature works alongside a tribute to Monochrome, the seminal composition by Maki Ishii, whose influence on taiko performance continues to resonate as the piece approaches its 50th anniversary.

Kodo also introduces new compositions shaped by the cultural experiences, encounters, and inspirations of today’s ensemble members, including original works by guest artists from diverse musical backgrounds that expand the expressive possibilities of taiko.
