The annual “Taiko Legacy” concert rooted is in the traditions of ozashiki (geisha chamber music), ohayashi (classical/folk/theater music), and matsuri taiko (festival taiko music). In the “Taiko Legacy” concerts, performative arrangements of original compositions from Tsukasa Taiko recontextualize the cultural traditions within contemporary ecologies of art, music and theater. Led by professional taiko artists and the longstanding Gintenkai community performance ensemble from Tsukasa Taiko, “Taiko Legacy 21” also features the next generation youth members who form a vital part of this ongoing legacy. Special guests for this concert include flutist Hyakkyou Fukuhara from Tokyo, and Melody Takata and GenRyu Arts from San Francisco.
