Kyodo Taiko - "Rai"

Kyodo performed at the UCLA NSU Culture Night in 2006. One of the four pieces played was "Rai," an intense piece symbolizing thunder, rain, storms, and finally, calm.

[Kyodo Taiko at UCLA was the first collegiate taiko group to form in North America, founded under UCLA's Nikkei Student Union. Striving to live up to the group’s name, Kyodo Taiko functions as a family, sharing the joy and spirit of taiko with more and more of the surrounding community each year.]
