On Sunday, April 28th, Soh Daiko kicked off the second day of the annual Sakura Matsuri at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Opening the program with a piece which invokes the image and sound of a storm, Yuudachi, Soh Daiko then brightened up the atmosphere with our rendition of Shishimai and Matsuri, ending with our signature piece, Hachidan. The weather and crowd could not have been more agreeable as the sun shined through the blooming cherry blossoms and the audience grooved along to our rhythm and soloists.
