About this event
■ World-Touring Japanese Drum Ensemble "YAMATO" Wadaiko, venturing into uncharted territory. Based in Asuka Village, Nara Prefecture, the wadaiko troupe "YAMATO" was formed in 1993 and has performed over 5,000 shows across 55 countries worldwide, captivating more than 10 million spectators in total. Starting with an enormous odaiko drum measuring approximately 2 meters in diameter and 500 kilograms in weight crafted from a massive tree over 400 years old, performers beat several dozen large and small drums with their rigorously trained bodies. With powerful rhythms and vibrant dynamism, YAMATO's stage is often described as "music of the body." In the New Year performance, celebrate the dawn of a new year accompanied by the resonant, powerful Japanese drumming of YAMATO. This is followed by the World Tour Departure Ceremony performance, marking the launch of YAMATO's new journey. Uniting hearts with everyone gathered at the venue and turning the energy generated there into power, YAMATO continues its journey to the next city and the next country. Experience with your entire body the sound and energy vibrating deep within.
