limitless reverberation... |
 |
The name "Mugenkyo" means "limitless reverberation" and
reflects our belief that Taiko has no limitations, no musical or geographical
boundaries; the reverberations of Taiko are spreading throughout the
world.
The possibilities of Taiko are endless, both in its pure form, and in
collaborations with other artists and disciplines.
It is our aim to develop
Taiko as a modern European art form, relevant to the world in which we
live. |

the mugenkyo concert |
 |
Thundering rhythms on huge taiko drums interweave with
delicate bamboo flute and subtle percussive
soundscapes in a spellbinding display of fluid grace, precise
choreography and sheer athleticism.
The concert captivates with its passion and intensity,
journeying through a myriad of moods, from the heart-pounding excitement
of 'Ikkyo', the dark brooding 'Otherworld', the hypnotic 'Phoenix', to
the happy festival atmosphere of 'Matsuri'.
Through their 10 years of rigorous touring, Mugenkyo have developed
a gritty passionate style that is uniquely their own. Retaining the traditional
spirit of taiko, yet creating a thoroughly contemporary sound, Mugenkyo
are forging a new path with their innovative approach. |

"Drumming as an almost religious experience. exhilarating
to behold."
The Glasgow Herald
"Just when you think it could not get any more powerful, it doubles in intensity.
This show is not one to be missed."
