Percussion Plus

Percussion Plus is a network of professional percussionists, percussion students on higher education level as well as children and youngsters who have music-making as a hobby. Percussion Plus organizes a music intensive course/networking meeting bi-annually in order to offer a forum for meetings, discussions and future development of the field and its music and pedagogy.

Percussion Plus is directed at Nordic and Baltic music academies (universities), university colleges, conservatoires and upper secondary schools offering education in the field of percussion, or percussive instruments. Percussions is a small instrument group among symphony orchestra instruments. Collaboration and ties between different educational levels and between musicians are very close. For the continuity and survival of this instrument group, it is essential to holistically pay attention to the whole educational path from hobbyist to professional.
