The Taiko 10 at North American Taiko Conference

Odaiko New England is honored to be performing at this year's Taiko 10, a community concert held in association with the biennial North American Taiko Conference. The Taiko 10 showcases the geographic, cultural, and artistic diversity that has developed within the North American taiko community– each group gets 10 minutes to show off their own interpretation of this unique and ever-evolving art form.
