Promising a musical explosion fit for the biggest concert halls, renowned Taiwanese Ju Percussion Group (JPG) is finally coming to Aotearoa.

Founded by visionary percussionist Ju Tzong-Ching in 1986, JPG is a 13-strong percussion supergroup, who blend East with West through impressive technique.

Huge in scale, JPG’s concerts place classical instruments within Asian theatrical elements to deliver a sound that is traditional yet modern, and playful yet virtuoso.

JPG will present compositions that inspire musical imagination, evoke the sights and sounds of Taiwan, and above all demonstrate the power and thrill of pure percussion.
