Profile

Sho Nakatani played taiko for four years as a member of his secondary school’s taiko club. He went on to enter the Kodo Apprentice Centre in 2017 and became a Kodo Member in 2020. On stage, Nakatani is mainly featured on taiko drums and vocals. In a quest to create feel good sound and expression on stage, he is currently focusing on two iconic parts in Kodo’s repertoire: the powerful front-row drum in Yatai-bayashi and the base rhythm that drives Miyake.
