Our Performance in\u00a0Legendary Yabu
\nOct. 3, 2015 “Kodo One Earth Tour: Eternity”<\/span><\/h2>\n

From the beginning of our current tour, the senior members have been saying\u00a0“but when we’re at the venue in Yabu” so many times and they have brought up interesting\u00a0things about this legendary hall.<\/p>\n

“We have to roll the O-daiko in from outside up\u00a0a staircase!”<\/p>\n

“Last time, we set up the O-daiko cart on the stage even though it was a tight fit.”<\/p>\n

“They have a profound love for Kodo\u00a0at the hall in Yabu.”<\/p>\n

As our performance there approached, I got so curious about Yabu from\u00a0hearing all the different things the Kodo members had to say about it!<\/p>\n

Rehearsal in Yabu<\/p><\/div>\n

Viva Hall in Yabu is smaller than most of our usual\u00a0venues\u00a0with\u00a0just 333 seats and a smaller stage to match. It was such a cozy place accompanied by\u00a0a really warm, heartfelt welcome from all of the staff.<\/p>\n

No matter how different a venue is, we have to create the\u00a0unique realm of “Eternity” on stage as intended by the artistic director and\u00a0deliver the production\u00a0to our audience properly. So during our rehearsals at each venue, we check every element in our performance with great attention to detail, from the angle of our gazes into the audience to how we produce each sound to suit the acoustics.<\/p>\n

I felt relieved when we received such warm applause from the full house during our performance in Yabu.<\/p>\n

When each and every member of the cast actively reconsiders the essence of “Eternity,”\u00a0we move with more detail and create sound together with more depth. I can feel our performance gaining depth\u00a0and becoming more refined each time\u00a0we go through this deliberate process.<\/p>\n
