Residents and guests of Capital Oaks were treated to a sensational performance of Taiko drumming! Takumi Kato, an award-winning Japanese Taiko drummer, has been touring the United States with his three young sons. Their goal is to present 1,000 performances across all 50 states, and we were honored to host performance number 642. Their beautiful music filled the theatre with sounds that captivated the audience and left everyone mesmerized.
We rounded out the day with a delicious Japanese lunch and an armchair travelogue to Japan! Thank you, Takumi Kato, Peaceful Forest, and the Japan-America Society of NC for sharing the beauty of Japanese music with us!
