“ASCENDANCE” (working title)
Inspired in part by the Japanese story structure kishotenketsu, which doesn’t demand conflict to tell a compelling story, ASCENDANCE is a thrilling collaboration between Kizuna Dance and Swarthmore College’s taiko drumming team. The work combines American contemporary streetdance forms with an original taiko drum score by Joe Small, to be performed alongside live drummers (in its final form).
