The UCF Percussion Summer Institute offers a unique opportunity to study closely with UCF percussion faculty Thad Anderson, percussionist, composer, and contemporary-electroacoustic music specialist; Kirk Gay, world-class timpanist and orchestral musician; and Jeff Moore, internationally recognized percussion clinician, lecturer, and soloist. We're excited to welcome Guest Artist Ivan Trevino to this year's institute. Additional guest artists and faculty will also be involved throughout the event.
This event is intended for college and advanced high school players (typically rising 11th or 12th graders) but may also include younger high school students that have significant experience. Rising 9th graders who will be 15 or older at the time of the event are welcome to submit an application. Acceptance to the Summer Institute is based on experience and ability level. This is assessed through the submission of two contrasting video performances and a statement of experience and interest from the applicant.
Housing is available. Food will not be provided.
