The Grants Pass Unified Percussion Ensemble placed first at the Northwest Association of Performing Arts Winter Championships!

This year’s winter percussion ensemble performed in the Standstill Percussion Division in the NWAPA.  Our winter percussion ensemble is comprised of over 20 musicians ranging in grades from 7-12 in the Grants Pass School District.  They rehearse 4 hours a week outside of school and traveled to two contests.  This ensemble started rehearsing in January and their season culminates on Friday, April 25th at the GP World of Percussion Festival at the PAC.

The GP World of Percussion Festival features our own GPSD student percussionists as well as college artists from various Oregon universities. 

Please congratulate your GP percussionists and see them in action on April 25th at the GP World of Percussion Festival!
