Amid a frozen Minnesota winter, a Japanese taiko master and a Korean adoptee raised in North Dakota unite to recruit the world’s finest female taiko players—Tiffany Tamaribuchi, Kaoly Asano, Chieko Kojima, Megan Chao‑Smith and Jennifer Weir—to form an all‑women ensemble that challenges a male‑dominated tradition.
