Taiko Drums at the Plainfield Rec Field This Saturday

Past event
Jul 30, 2022, 4 to 5:30 PM

On Sunday, July 31 at 4 pm the Burlington Taiko Group will present a performance of this incredibly vibrant and energetic art form in the Plainfield Rec Field. It is so much fun and so exciting to see and hear Taiko! The concert will move to the Opera House in the event of inclement weather. Says founding member Stuart Paton: "Since 1987, Burlington Taiko has been mesmerizing audiences with the powerful, spellbinding, and propulsive sounds of the taiko. With the power of an elemental force of nature, men and women play with the passion of complete abandon, fully committing their bodies and spirits to the beautiful, precise choreography and powerful, surging rhythms expressed by taiko. Using a background of thunderous drums, graceful movement and colorful pageantry, Burlington Taiko provides a unique opportunity for entertainment and education." For more information about Taiko visit their website: http://www.burlingtontaiko.org/index.php. This informal, outdoor concert will last about an hour and feature an opportunity to talk with the artists. Admission is by donation (pay what you can - $20 suggested). Bring a blanket, chair, picnic, kids, friends, and family! The Plainfield Rec Field has a playground and a brook to wade in.
