The sounds of drums fill the air as the members of the music group On Ensemble perform during a concert at Mountain Home High School's Lloyd Schiller Gymnasium on Friday.

The Los Angeles-based quartet shared their unique blend of traditional instruments and modern sounds to an audience of more than 90 people during last week's concert.

In addition to their performance in Lloyd Schiller Gym, the group conducted a music outreach program at Richard McKenna Charter High School earlier that day.

Shoji Kameda performs a solo as a lead-in to the group's opening number at Friday's concert.

Kristofer Bergstrom demonstrates the unusual sounds produced by a koto, a traditional Japanese stringed instrument.
