With their new show "INFINITY," the ensemble introduces new artistic accents and combines thunderous rhythms, perfect synchronisation, and pure energy to deliver a captivating experience. Exceptional musicians including shakuhachi master Chiaki Toyama, Tsugaru-Shamisen world champion Masamitsu Takasaki, and Karin Toyama (vocals and koto) join together to unite Japanese tradition with contemporary staging. Expressive dancers add a new visual dimension. A highlight of the show remains the traditional Japanese sword dance, blended with contemporary dance to create a unique and intense aesthetic. This fusion with the power of Taiko drumming sweeps the audience away on an impressive cultural journey.
