Exploring the limitless possibilities of the traditional Japanese drum, the taiko, Kodo is forging new directions for a vibrant living art-form. In Japanese the word "Kodo" conveys two meanings: Firstly, "heartbeat" the primal source of all rhythm. The sound of the great taiko is said to resemble a mother's heartbeat as felt in the womb, and it is no myth that babies are often lulled asleep by its thunderous vibrations. Secondly, read in a different way, the word can mean "children of the drum," a reflection of Kodo's desire to play the drums simply, with the heart of a child.

Min-Jung Kym and Zsolt-Tihamér Visontay started working together as a duo in 2009. They were brought together by a common love for mixing both popular repertoire with pieces that are not so familiar along with the desire to play chamber music with a like-minded musician. After only a year performing together, the duo made their Wigmore Hall debut in December 2010 with a programme that typified their musical aims - Beethoven's famous Kreutzer Sonata by Beethoven with two works which would have been less well known to the audience - the sonata by Debussy and the early 1903 sonata by Béla Bartók.
