The Legend of Drums-Drumming the Sky and Earth

Taiwan Ten-Drum Art Percussion Group makes its U.S. debut and only 2018 U.S. appearance at Miller with a powerful and unforgettable performance of Taiwanese drumming and culture.

“The Legend of Drums” will present a series of compositions which depicts the development of drum art. From the invention of the first drums at the War of Chu-Lu to the adaption of drum music in modern society, this program will bring the audience on a virtual journey to discover the wisdom of our ancestors through powerful beats. “The Legend of Drums” will tell everyone a story. A story of birth and nature; a story that looks into the origin of a long-lived civilization that we know today but never fully understood.

This is a ticketed event for the covered seating area. Free tickets are available (4 per person over age 16 while they last) at the Miller Outdoor Theatre box office the day of the performance between the hours of 10:30 AM-1:00 PM. If tickets remain at 1:00 PM, the box office will re-open one hour before show time to distribute the remaining tickets. As always, open seating on the hill. The shows goes on rain or shine.
