The 4th Annual Northwest Percussion Project

The 4th Annual Northwest Percussion Project will take place March 14th, 2009 at Pullman High School in Pullman, WA.

This year's event features percussion workshops on stick technique, mallet percussion, world percussion, drum set, concert percussion and rhythm skills. Based on participant feedback we have re-designed these workshops to better meet the needs of students at beginning, intermediate and advanced levels.

Our new workshop this year is an introduction to recording technology. This workshop will give participants hands-on experience with microphone technique and multi-track recording equipment. Students will also be able to experience how recorded sounds can be changed through post-production effects.

Another great workshop we are bringing back is the "Parent Workshop" taught by Daniel Bukvich, Professor of Percussion from the University of Idaho. This session is for parents of registered participants and is packed full of information for parents to help their young musicians succeed.


This year's schedule of workshops will offer a great variety of quality instruction and continue to build on our tradition of quality percussion education in a fun and supportive environment.
