Pittsburgh Taiko will be joining Carnegie Mellon University’s Japanese Student Association for their annual festival on Tuesday afternoon from 3 to 8.
Have some takoyaki and crepes, and listen to a variety of performers! Details here: https://cmujsa.com/matsuri/booths/

We are hard at work getting ready for our performance in Washington DC on Sunday, March 31 at the National Cherry Blossom Festival!
We were lucky enough to join some of our friends from the taiko community last year at this event, and we’re excited to have another opportunity. (Thanks to Mark H Rooney, Miyako Taiko, and all the other local organizers!)
If you’re near DC, or need an excuse to go, please join us for a great day of taiko! Details here: https://www.markhrooney.com/event/2019-sakura-taiko-fest/
We had a great beginner session in January, and we want to keep it going with a level 2 class starting March 10!
The class will run four Sundays, March 10, 17, and 24, then finish up on April 7. Classes are 1:30-3 pm in our studio, on the second floor at 2 North Balph St. in Bellevue.
The class is open to students who have taken a previous beginner class or have taiko experience.

Don’t miss out! We will close registration for our 4-week beginner session (starting Sunday 1/13) at the end of this week – or earlier if we hit our class size limit. So if you’re looking to learn to play these awesome drums, make sure to preregister!
Details are here. Follow the link to the JASP website to sign up.
Hope you can join us!
Start the new year with a new hobby – join our four-week beginner session this January!
The four-week class will teach you the basics of playing taiko. We provide all equipment and no prior experience is necessary!
Read details here and use the link to preregister through the Japan-America Society of Pennsylvania.
Our next public performance will be December 2 at the Pitt Nationality Rooms holiday open house.
We’ll kick off the music and dance program at Noon. (UPDATED – an earlier version of the post said 1 pm, that’s wrong.) There are a lot of performances so we only have 12-12:15 to play; don’t be late!
Come join us for the great food and tours of specially decorated classrooms celebrating cultures all over the globe.
