 Media Reviews

  • Indeed, if there is such a thing as perfection in music, Kodo comes as near to it as any group in the world.
  • Boston Globe US
  •   
  • Throughout, the devil of it is the combination of the discipline of a surgeon's scalpel with the primitive, muscular endurance of a cavalry charge.The speed and dexterity are as impressive as the physical tenacity is breathtaking.
  • Chicago Tribune
  •  
  • "Balancing a deadly aggression with utter tranquility, their sound stretches from the lightest of rainfall to cataclysmic thunderclaps, from pleasant laughter to discordant fear and from silence to - just once here - a wall of sound, as high, frightening and impregnable as a mountain. Musicians, theatre directors and all interested in the sheer power of sound to feed emotions should take note."
  • The Guardian / UK
  • "The spectator is crushed by their power and then suddenly, silence. Complete silence as if life had stopped in an instant, no applause, not even a breath. I have never seen a show where the audience was so close to suffocating. Don't miss this, the sound of their drums will be engraved forever on your memory."
  • Le Quotidien de Paris / FRANCE
  • "Excitingly varied, marvelously theatrical, fascinating from start to finish, with moments of vivid physical excitement, this programme by a small group of dancers and drummers, remaking performance arts into a modern theatrical experience, was a model of what can be done with folk art."
  • The Sunday Telegraph / UK
  •  

  • La discipline monacale et la profonds spiritualité* de Kodo a fait au moins autant pour la réputation du groupe que l’extraordinaire musique envoutante, majestueuse et grave de l’ensemble de tambours.

  • Le Figaro / FRANCE

  •  

  • {Grand choc et roulement de tonnerre, les taios, tambours traditionnels, japonais, re onnent jusqu’au plus profond des spectateurs, puis, decrescendo, se font imperceptibles, tandis qu’un bruissement léger semble emplir tout l’espace.} Du silence au fracas, les concerts de la compagne Kodo tiennent de la cérémonie barbare et de la culture la plus raffinée.
