YAMATO

Yamato must be lived – that's how the drummers of this unique ensemble see it. To achieve the breathtaking synchronicity and power of their drum performances, they live together, train together, cook together, rehearse together, and carve their drumsticks together. And they travel the world to thrill millions of audiences with their rhythms, their dance, and their athleticism. In 2026, they will return to the Festspielhaus with a new program, “Hito no Chikara – The Power of Human Strength”: a colorful celebration of humanity and life to the beat of taiko drums.
