Takohachi’s Q Ensemble
Takohachi is a multifaceted nonprofit organization established in 2007 striving to educate and entertain through Japanese music. In 2018 Takohachi added a new group calleded Takohachi Q-Ensemble that consists of 3 to 5 dedicated and talented performers. The ensemble has had significant successes in the smaller venues such as school and library systems with its edutainment programs, introducing Japanese culture through music.
Q-Ensemble’s repertoires are unique and diverse, ranging from traditional to modern, using taiko drums, the shinobue bamboo flute, the tsugaru shamisen, and more.
