TAPS is an annual week-long percussion seminar, covering a wide variety of musical styles, instruments, and approaches. Our faculty give master classes, performances, and private lessons to TAPS participants. Students participate in percussion ensemble rehearsals, with a public performance at the end of the week. Mock auditions are held with the winners receiving prizes from our sponsoring companies. Students will have an opportunity to get to know our faculty through collaboration, but also through shared meals and social outings.
