Maui Taiko
A Tradition for Generations
Maui Taiko, established in 1996, is a non-profit charitable organization created to perpetuate traditional Japanese folk songs and to promote taiko (Japanese drumming) music. Maui Taiko is carrying on a hundred year tradition of performing the Japanese folk song, Fukushima Ondo at many O-Bon festivals and cultural events on Maui. The group continues to work toward elevating their artistry in taiko with over 60 performances a year ranging from community events, corporate engagements, and private functions.
