On Ensemble

June 15, 2010 - Carnegie Hall

On Ensemble (pronounced "Ohn") takes the ancient instruments of taiko into new realms, infusing the powerful rhythms of ensemble Japanese drumming with elements of hip-hop, rock and electronica. On Ensemble's members, Masato Baba, Kristofer Bergstrom and Shoji Kameda, are individually recognized as leading artists in their field and sought after as teachers, workshop leaders, composers and performers. As On Ensemble they combine their study and deep appreciation of tradition with equally formative experiences as DJs, electronic music producers, jazz drummers, and rock bassists to create a repertoire of ground-breaking music.
