Makoto Taiko 2025 Concert: Hishō

Makoto Taiko strives to connect and empower people of all backgrounds by advancing the practice of taiko with intention and sincerity.
This year’s concert theme, Hishō (飛翔)—meaning “flight” or “soaring”—captures the energy, movement, and boundless spirit of taiko. Through dynamic rhythms and expressive motion, we’ll celebrate the joy of soaring—spinning, moving with the drum, and grooving with heart and soul.
We are thrilled to welcome two extraordinary guest artists: Eri Uchida from Japan, whose renowned Katsugi style allows her to glide across the stage with breathtaking grace, and Shoji Kameda, a Grammy-recognized taiko artist, composer, and founder of kaDON.
This theme also reflects Makoto Taiko’s journey—rising to new heights as we embark on our 26th year of drumming. Join us for an unforgettable evening of rhythm, movement, and flight!
