An expressive blend of taiko drumming and Japanese folk dance, the core of Unit Sozou's artistic voice is personal and authentic, sound shaped and inspired by form and movement. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-_nu3yi-Ac" target="_blank">Watch on YouTube</a> Unit Souzou will offer two performances at Field Arts &amp; Events Hall on July 30th. Performance times are 11:00AM and 1:30PM. 'Souzou' can be written in three ways meaning 'creation' (創造), 'imagination' (想像), or 'noisy' (騒々), alluding to a force by which new ideas are born and take shape in the world. Inspired by these words, the mission of Unit Souzou is to build creative, imaginative works while honoring the history and roots of the taiko art form. Founders Michelle Fujii and Toru Watanabe are relentless innovators at the forefront of a growing artistic movement within the taiko community.
