CHIKARA, the power of the Japanese drum

8 de July de 2026
A Japanese percussion performance that explores, through sound and movement, the eternal struggle between good and evil, the inner contradiction of humankind, and its relentless pursuit of harmony. The drums converse, clash, and ultimately synchronize, symbolizing the transformation of conflict into encounter. Two forces that seek each other even in opposition. The shared rhythm reminds us that, in essence, we all beat as one. On stage, light and shadow become music.
