Over the course of three sessions, we’ll work on form, musicality, and practice technique as we collaboratively compose a new taiko piece!

Participants first work with me one on one to determine personalized goals for the three weeks.  Parts are then tailored to individual needs.  The session culminates in a real performance, with a real audience!

The course will be engaging, challenging, and fun!  Participants come away with directed feedback, experience composing, and a new piece ready for reuse!

Open to all taiko players.  I’m really looking forward to this fast-paced, fun series!  Join us!
