Fort Wayne Taiko members have been hard at work preparing for Knock on Wood IV. New material, costuming, themes, and set ideas are under way as well as a new venue in the Downtown Library Auditorium. In February, we were lucky enough to have John Yost, of Kaiju Daiko, back in the Fort for a 5-hour workshop and another new and exciting piece of music to explore. This one is an original composition by John that his group performed at our 2008 concert. So the metronomes have come out again and members are being frustrated (and humbled) by that tiny piece of equipment. But its all worth it as we prepare for all the summer festivals and culminate with Knock on Wood IV on Nov 20, 2010.

It’s exciting that you’re holding it at the library! It’ll be a fun performance.
You’re so right. It will be great seating for the audience but I do have to say, I will miss the incredible energy of the Dance Collective. It is such a beautful and intimate setting.
