GREETINGS FROM ALAMEDA!

CHIEKO KOJIMA
I’ve been working with Chieko Kojima (from Kodo) revisiting some pieces that we’ve done together in the past. Both her dancing and drumming have a combination of elegance and power that I have not seen in any other taiko player, male or female.  She approaches drumming as a dancer and her philosophies regarding posture, grace, feminine beauty and presentation of drumming are insightful, personal and passionate.  We still have some space left over for her workshop in NY on March 17th.  Please e-mail me with “Chieko workshop” as the subject line if you haven’t already.

Here’s a clip of us performing Hana Hachijo as a demonstration to workshop participants:
