An unprecedented and timeless Japanese drumming performance from the extraordinary TAO. This is a totally new genre, a mix of drum, dance and musical theatre. TAO are irresistible, compelling and will greatly surpass all your expectations.
The musical and physical extremely dynamic track “Red-Run” is taken from the fantastic album “Ukiyomugendagaku” (TAO Drummers of Japan, 2009). Listen & Enjoy it.

@aestala 7 year old may be too young
it most definitely isn’t! i just went with my taiko group to watch the one in Los Angeles.. absolutely breathtaking. i was sitting on the edge of my seat the entire time. i’d definitely recommend it, it’s a must see show!
@aestala not really, it is totally awsome, just saw it.
Is it too loud for children? I was thinking of taking my 7 year old.

I love this group! went to 2 Concerts of them.
Nice Video. Its impossible to sit by hearing this music
@vcware: Please ask TAO directly. I bought the CD after visiting a live show in Germany in 2009 from TAO itself…and got a signed version.
Where is it possible to buy the disc? I have both previous ones, but it(he,she) was when they came to Spain.
Anyone knows where we could buy the music? It’s amazing!
Thank you so much for sharing this!
I just saw TAO last week and finding your videos really makes me love them more as I have a chance to hear their songs again.
If they come around again, I will surely buy their CD.
Thanks!
@Shaoraan: Sorry, I have other standards and I am sure that there are a lot of people who are very happy to find channels like mine. See comments on my channel.
@Shaoraan. Absolutely, TAO is brilliant. But, a counterquestion: Why and for what do you visit YT?
@Shaoraan: Yes, no question. But if those people want to download TAO’s music they will use other internet platforms than YT where they can get the whole CD…I myself got attention to TAO through a YT clip and visited their concert and bought their CD and DVD.
And No, I don’t think that these clips damage their sells. Because not everyone in the world is able to buy those CDs anyway. Not only because they do not know TAO anyway. People who do not know TAO won’t buy their CDs anyway. So for commercial it doesn’t matter if they get access to TAO’s music on YT or not. I think those YT clips make TAO more known and brings more fans..so you can also say that those clips are addtional advertising for TAO.
@Shaoraan: Hi, read my copyright notes on my channel info. If TAO wants to me to remove their clips it is enough to send me a short message.
