At the moment I am making music for the theater play Abekongen at Mungo Park Kolding. The play is based on the 16th century Chinese novel Journey to the West. Some may remember the Chinese cartoon Havoc in Heaven based on the same story. It’s on Youtube here.
I’m making the music with the help of drummers from the Seidokan Taiko group. Taiko drums are huge Japanese drums traditionally associated with the practice of karate. The pics below are of the drums in Sauna Recording Studio.
Abekongen opens February 16. I’ll put up some of the music when it’s done.
