‘TAGO thunders with energy, creating a noisy treat for the whole family’ – The List
Let us drift away from pop music for a moment and turn the letter K into a fresh, young breeze of traditional rhythms. TAGO’s The Drum Shaman is a masterful display of precision and movement, a representation of old rituals with an appealing contemporary twist.
Using a set of Korean percussion instruments, from gigantic to small hand drums, seasoned by martial arts moves, these versed musicians reinvent a millennial heritage with an irresistible verve. Paced by an impeccable timing, smooth aesthetics and scenic awareness, TAGO tours the world lighting up audiences with their beats, acclaimed in festivals and venues through Europe, Africa, South America and Australia.
Energetic and multi-skilled, their pounding show is now set to immerse us in a whirlpool of emotions with splashes of physical comedy, expressed through exciting choreography. May the Korean beat transport us back to ancient, beautiful eras, without ever leaving our own ground. Let’s move!
