Ford Ampitheatre is a wonderful venue - outside, under the stars and not a bad seat in the house. The only downside to this performance was that I was expecting a professional troupe and only one of the 4 troupes was professional. Even though the kids were good for their ages, I did not go there to watch kids playing. The leaders of Taikoproject played at the end and it was absolutely stupendous and spectacular. It's a shame that the whole show couldn't have been the same.Written on Jul 12 2010

This event was good for a sunday if you have nothing to do, we enjoyed it but glad I didn't pay the full price. The venue is excellent for this type of event, however, parking is Horrific!! to say the least! Don't park in the venue because you will get stuck in "stack" parking! It took about 45 mins just to get out of the lot.Written on Jul 12 2010

Description
The award-winning TAIKOPROJECT presents an exhilarating performance of the dynamic art of American Taiko with the 100 cast member production Rhythmic Relations 2010 at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood. Joined by sister groups, Bombu Taiko, Kitsune Taiko & Southern California’s newest group, Loma Pacific Taiko, these ground-breaking artists will rock the Ford stage, for a third time with their enormous drums, nuanced collaborations and innovative musicianship.
The TAIKOPROJECT, emerging leaders in the evolution of the taiko art form, continue to pave the way for the next generation of drummers in Rhythmic Relations 2010, with contemporary fusions of traditional Japanese taiko and cross-cultural music influences such as hip hop, rock, and world music. Led by two of America’s top taiko artists, Artistic Directors Bryan Yamami and Masato Baba, the event will feature TAIKOPROJECT’s groundbreaking hip-hop anthem Expanding, and a number of new works blending traditional taiko with Zimbabwean marimba, the Japanese koto (harp), and the yokobue (bamboo flute).
Rhythmic Relations 2010 will exhibit some of the most diverse and beautifully made taiko drums; made by Asano Taiko Inc (formed in 1609), which is the oldest and most prestigious drum maker in Japan. Showcasing performances by drummers ranging from 7 years of age to 70, and unparalleled skill and technique, Rhythmic Relations 2010 is a celebration of TAIKOPROJECT’s ten years of outstanding innovative artistic and commercial work. In addition, TAIKOPROJECT will release their first CD at the performance, featuring studio tracks of some of the most exciting and innovative American taiko music ever to be recorded.
