Taiko a la Tom-Tom by Steven Wulff takes its inspiration from Taiko and Kyoto drumming in Japan, in its music content and playing style.
This work features four percussionists, each with a single tom , and the simple and grandiose rhythms are passed around between the players. This creates an intense wall of sound and absolute cohesion between the quartet.
Taiko a la Tom-Tom is a very fun piece that is great for new performers to the world of percussion ensemble.
