World Festivals and DVDs

After settling down from the excitement of our annual concert, we have already begun preparations for our next biggest performance of the year: the World Festival of Sacred Music.

Makoto Taiko will perform at the Luckman Fine Arts Complex at CSULA on October 8 from 5-6pm. This will be our second time participating in this wonderful festival event but our first time performing solo. Check out our website gallery to see photos of when we collaborated with Shakti Dance Company at the World Festival of Sacred Music to produce the Aum-Sho-Namah concert.


Makoto Taiko's big project for this year is creating a DVD of our concert performance. Kazu Domae is busy putting together footage from our annual concert last month and aims to have the DVD ready by late July. We got a sneak peek at the footage for this DVD and it looks amazing! Thank you Kazu! So make sure to order a copy of Makoto Taiko's DVD.
