uncp percussion Pictures and sounds

The primary goal of percussion study at UNCP is developing the well-rounded percussion performer. The ideal scenario is for a student to come out of the program prepared for any performance situation in which they might find themselves. These sounds are just a sampling to show the wide variety of percussion music a student might be involved in performing while studying at UNCP.

These are all live recordings and should play in WMP and Quicktime.
