The Art of Japanese Drumming (Performance)

Join us as we celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.  Mark H Rooney – the world’s most dangerous half-Japanese/half-Scottish solo improvisational taiko artist – studies, performs and teaches taiko, a dynamic form of full-body drumming based in Japanese tradition. He studies, performs, and teaches taiko: a dynamic form of full-body drumming based in Japanese tradition. Mark combines that traditional foundation with a modern sensibility to create performances and classes that are full of energy, endurance, and excitement! Please note you may need earplugs as the drumming will be quite loud. We look forward to you joining us for this exciting and fun event!
