DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to Taiko Kai's first annual spring concert held at the Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Theatre on May 6th, 2017 @ 7:00 PM PST. Taiko Kai is the University of Washington's first taiko group. The club was founded in the Spring of 2013 by three sisters, Kimberly, Kellie, and Jaymi Matsudaira. The group's goal is to spread the love of taiko throughout the University of Washington and to share this portion of Japanese culture with all.
This concert is a showcase of Taiko Kai's efforts throughout the years as it ushers in a new generation of Taiko players, many of whom just started in Fall of 2016. The club has grown greatly over the years and this concert marks a significant stepping stone in its growth. In addition, we are proud to help promote Seattle University's new collegiate group, Hidaka Taiko, as our opening act. just started only a few months ago and we hope to foster a strong relationship between our group and theirs for many years to come.
We appreciate all those who can come to this event and be part of Taiko Kai's journey into tomorrow. Witness history by coming to watch our small college group grow.
Note: Earplugs are recommended but not required. Earplugs will be available for purchase at the venue.
Ticket sales will help support the group with equipment maintenance, workshops, and travel costs. Taiko Kai does all of its own repairs on equipment and has built several drums from scratch using wine barrels. Taiko Kai also wishes to help fund student members to participate in workshops by professional groups and players, as well help fund students to travel to conferences where they can learn and grow such as the upcoming Intercollegiate Taiko Invitational at Los Angeles this year. Any extra donations are welcomed and will be appreciated.
