Japan’s world famous Kodo Drummers return to Toronto after four long years with a groundbreaking new show: Kodo One Earth Tour: Mystery, which runs one night only – Thursday, March 12 @ 8pm – at the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts, presented by Hammond Associates.
Kodo forges new directions for a vibrant living art form with Mystery, a breath-taking spectacle that explores the limitless possibilities of the traditional Japanese drum. Among several different instruments played by Kodo is a 900-pound odaiko, a drum carved from the trunk of a single tree.
Taking Kodo to yet another frontier, Mystery transcends the real world as it voyages to a wondrous realm that lies in the beyond, where sacred beasts and myriad gods roam. Kodo’s primal foundation-shaking rhythms and displays of muscular endurance astound and delight audiences of all ages.
Tickets range from $55 – $95 and are available by calling the Box Office at 1-855-872-SONY (7669), by visiting www.sonycentre.ca or in person at the Sony Centre Box Office.
