The Montbello High School Drumline -- an awesome precision drumming group -- is traveling to Japan for a once-in-a-lifetime cultural exchange, on the new United 787 Dreamliner's direct flight between Denver and Tokyo. After performing at the home of U.S. Ambassador to Japan John Roos, the students will travel on to Takayama, Denver's Sister City, to perform for schools and in a concert hall with a famous taiko drum group.
The Montbello group was invited by Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock, who had traveled to Takayama himself when he was a high school student, and who was a principle player in bringing the direct Tokyo flight to Denver International Airport.
