Make Music Madison

Beni Daiko Taiko Ensemble

"Beni Daiko" is Madison's premiere mainland taiko drumming group. "Beni" means "deep red" in Japanese, representing Madison, and "Taiko" means drum. Our goal is to teach, preserve, and perform the ancient art of Taiko drumming, a form of traditional Japanese musical expression that combines mental discipline and physical demand. Our mission is to introduce a facet of Japanese culture through teaching and performing for people of all ages.
