Quotes & Highlights

  • KODO got great Goldstar reviews at Washington's DAR Constitution Hall.
  • “...the discipline of a surgeon’s scalpel with the primitive, muscular endurance of a cavalry charge. The speed and dexterity are as impressive as the physical tenacity is breathtaking.” --Chicago Tribune

Description

Since its debut at the Berlin Festival in 1981, KODO has given over 3,300 performances on five continents and has introduced countless audiences to its peaceful, world-centered vision. The word ‘Kodo’ is a homonym for ‘heartbeat’ -- humanity’s most fundamental source of rhythm -- the first sound a child hears in its mother’s womb. The taiko drum, in the hands of a master drummer, has an almost astounding organic power. Feel the primal energy of KODO!
