Kodo Evolution

A rousing drum session rumbled through Spaulding this evening. This was a group of young people from Sado Island in Japan. They live and train communally, and some are selected to go on tour.

This was a well choreographed show, with a good mix of rhythm, dance, and music.

They were handing out earplugs in the lobby before the show. The loudest part was in the first half when they had seven drummers on small drums about the size of snare drums. Small but loud! For the finale, they had three big 4′ drums going, which wasn’t as loud. But you could feel them rumble through your body and the floor.
