TAO: The Art of the Drum at Sandler Center for the Performing Arts

TAO was formed in Aichi, Japan, in 1993. TAO's home base “Grandioso" was established on the 40,000 square meters of land surrounded by beautiful nature. TAO created the perfect environment for its music creation with three different rehearsal halls.

TAO decided to first lay their roots in the southern Kyushu region and focused on performances in Kyushu only until they achieved one million ticket sales. Their originality as a core idea of TAO had to be well established to be recognized as "a world class entertainment." TAO attainted its original goal of million tickets sales in seven and a half years and then took their shows to the world. Since the creation of the show 10 years ago, TAO has been seen more than 4 million spectators in 17 countries and 400 cities. Their success in the world gathered talented creators from across the globe, which broadens the infinite possibility of TAO.
