General
Q. What is LATI DONference?

Q. How do I purchase performance tickets?

A2. Concert Tickets: https://torrancearts.org/show/art-study-of-taiko-concert/
Q. What is the difference between the Recital and the Concert?
A. The Recital is for students performing what they learned throughout our Sep-Nov classes. The Concert is for taiko groups that exist separately from these courses.

A. YES!
Online Courses
Q. Are there online 12-week courses offered this year?
A. We're very sorry, but there are no online courses offered this year. The only method to participate/perform at our Recital on 12/9 (Sat) is to learn a piece at our Workshops.
Workshops
Q. Can I just come and take the Workshops in December?
A. Yes! Please register when the Registration Form is live on 10/10 (Tue). Deadline to register is 11/15 (Wed)! For workshop details, please see the Workshops page. Performing at our Recital on 12/9 (Sat) is an option (if so, please note there is a $10 Recital participation fee), but is not a requirement :)
Q. What if I can partially attend a workshop (i.e. one of the two days)?
A. There are two workshop options: 12/4 (Mon) AND 12/5 (Tue) Modori WS and 12/6 (Wed) AND 12/7 (Thu) Summer Reprise WS. You may take one or both workshops, but unfortunately we will not be offering a single-day registration option.
