The
festival sound of Japan-- from traditional songs to contemporary
compositions;
folktales to cultural facts; lullabies to American traditional jazz and
swing; folksongs to classical music pieces - her "Matsuri" performance
entertains and educates. In traditional costume, using taiko drums,
various
hand percussion, bamboo flutes and the koto (Japanese harp), Toni and
her
troupe delight audiences all over Denver and Colorado.
