About this show

Kodo plays Bing Concert Hall, an 842-capacity theater in Stanford University, on Wednesday, January 20. The show starts at 7:30 PM. Kodo also has 2 other dates on Go See Shows, in Los Angeles and Seattle.

One of the most beloved taiko groups, Kodo explores the limitless possibilities of traditional Japanese drums with a practice rooted in their home of Sado Island. In Japanese, kodo can mean “heartbeat,” the primal source of all rhythm, as well as “children of the drum.” This program includes signature pieces honed through decades of world tours, including the mighty O-daiko drum solo and climactic Yatai-bayashi finale. They also pay homage to Maki Ishii’s masterpiece Monochrome, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2026, and present new works by Kodo members and guest artists.
