Overview
Yamato is a Japanese taiko drumming troupe that tours all over the world. The title of YAMATO’s newest program is “Passion”. As some of you may know, YAMATO welcomed the 27th anniversary in 2020, celebrating the group’s tours and performances in around 54 different countries, with over 4,000 performances that (have) reached almost 8 million people.
Since the formation of the group in 1993, YAMATO's slogan has been "Let's go to wherever we are invited! Let's give energy to the world!"

About
Dozens of players start their performance by hitting a Japanese taiko drum made from a large 400 year-old tree. They move their bodies to strike the drum with all their effort, creating a surge of powerful energy. Audiences are energised by the beat of the music, their bodies in sync with the powerful sounds. This group, from beautiful Nara Prefecture in Japan, ables to exhibit great originality and innovation through a traditional Japanese musical instrument, the wadaiko (Japanese drum). This is the epitome of the Japanese spirit, a roaring sound that will make you experience new exciting adventures.
