Celebrate a milestone with one of the world’s most innovative taiko masters! For five decades, Kenny Endo has pushed the boundaries of Japanese drumming, blending tradition with jazz, funk, Afro-Cuban, Hawaiian, and Asian influences. Born in Los Angeles and revered in Japan as the first non-national awarded a prestigious “natori” title, Endo brings his signature artistry back to his hometown for an unforgettable evening.

Joined by a powerhouse ensemble of musicians, Endo’s 50th Anniversary concert at the Aratani Theatre promises thunderous rhythms, mesmerizing improvisation, and the kind of cross-cultural energy that has defined his legendary career.

Don’t miss this historic celebration of a taiko pioneer who transformed the art form in the U.S. and beyond. Get Early Bird rates when you purchase tickets October 3-19. After October 19, JACCC members can save $5 on regular tickets through the Member Hub.
