TAIKO
Kenny Endo and Taiko Center of the Pacific with special guests Todd Yukumoto, SheenRu Yong, and Jeff Peterson.

Tonight’s concert honors the careers of Professor Barbara Smith and Professor William Malm and celebrates 45 years of taiko by Kenny Endo.

Barbara Smith is considered one of the pioneers of ethnomusicology and has been a mentor and instructor for many top scholars in the field. In 2020, Barbara celebrated her 100th birthday and many symposiums, meetings, and concerts honoring her accomplishments have taken place.

William Malm is considered one of the foremost American authorities on Japanese music. For the first time in Hawaiʻi, the artists will perform with a set of instruments and a shishigashira (lion head used in the traditional Japanese lion dance) donated by Dr. Malm to the Taiko Center of the Pacific.
