Did you know…
Yamato was founded by Masa Ogawa in 1993 in Nara, “the land of Yamato,” which is said to be the birthplace of Japanese culture.
Since its formation almost a decade ago, Yamato has played to more than a million people, giving more than 1,000 performances in about a dozen different countries.
Yamato travels with several dozen large and small drums including an O-daiko made from a huge tree over 400-years-old.
Yamato’s performances are infused with the idea that the drumbeat, like the heartbeat, is the very pulse of life.
