    The taiko drum festival usually lasts 1 hour and 40 minutes. It features performances by taiko drummers called uchite and conveys meanings of heartbeat and "Children of the Drum." The history of taiko drumming in North America began in the late 1960s with the formation of early groups in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and the influential Japanese group Za Ondekoza popularized taiko globally in the 1960s-1970s before some members went on to form the renowned group Kodo in 1981.
