FAQ
Should I bring my own instrument? IMPACT Percussion will provide a full set of percussion instruments. However, if you have access to a drum, you are encouraged to bring it. All attendees should also bring their own sticks/mallets and a practice pad.
Can I focus on more than one instrument? Our clinic is designed for you to get the most instruction on one instrument of your choosing. You will stay with your section for most of the day, and toward the end of the day, sections will join together to review music they’ve worked on in sectionals.
