What does Jason Mraz, taiko drumming and a women’s a cappella choir have in common? These three elements come together on Sunday afternoon for the Dance Collective’s Choreographers Lab. Towns of Harmony women’s choir will be singing “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz, creating the full score with just their voices, while three taiko drummers will be playing Taiko Bayashi. Taiko Bayashi is a traditional taiko song that you can easily find on youtube but you won’t find it anywhere else performed like you will see it on Feb 19th. Tickets are $8 Adults, $5 Children and you get to evaluate each performance and write comments of what you liked/didn’t like as these are a creative “work-in-progress”. Go to www.fwdc.org for more information on the event.
