For their 40th anniversary, they created two works based on their name: "Tsuzumi" takes its name and theme from the drum character, and "Warabe" from the child element. In "Warabe," Kodo looks to its classic repertoire and aesthetics from the ensemble's early days. This production blends simple forms of taiko expression that celebrate the unique sound, resonance, and physicality synonymous with Kodo - forever children of the drum at heart. Come and experience the soul-stirring rhythm of life first hand.
