Performances
Festivals
Taiko is often showcased at matsuri,
or festivals, held during special seasons in Asian American
communities. In fact, the growth of the art form owes much
to the visibility that taiko groups have enjoyed at these
celebrations, so San Jose Taiko gladly participates in these
local events, as well as at multicultural and music/dance
festivals, state fairs, and city celebrations throughout
the country.
Full Concerts and Home Season Concert
San Jose Taiko showcases their rich repertoire in a 90 minute full concert
set encased in a colorful collage of creative staging and
lighting design. Concert venues may vary in size from small
stages to large theaters at schools, colleges, universities,
and performing arts centers. A major annual event for San
Jose Taiko is our home season concert, an extended concert
run that provides an opportunity to premiere new compositions,
try new concepts in programming, debut new performing members,
and share some special time with our dedicated and supportive
local audience.
Tours and Residencies
Touring generally takes San Jose Taiko "on the road'' for
three to five weeks during the Spring and again during the
Fall. Tour venues are arranged and contracted for us through
our booking agent, Holden & Arts Associates, Inc., and
are in various regions of the United States as well as abroad.
While on tour the company performs concerts and conducts
residencies. Residencies may last from three to seven days
and include a combination of full concerts, school outreach
programs, and Masters Classes.
