Percussion Studies at Northwestern University provides a program of study in orchestral, solo, chamber, world and jazz idioms. Students work with world-class artists in both private and master class settings, creating an unequaled experience in percussion training.
The Percussion Studio each year comprises approximately 20 students: 12 undergraduates and 8 graduate students. All students perform in the major ensembles with the exception of doctoral students, who fill in when needed. Ensembles include the Symphony Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra, Symphonic Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, as well as a Contemporary Music Ensemble. Ensemble placement is determined through a screened "mini" orchestral audition process given three times each year (fall, winter and spring quarters). This is an excellent training experience for the professional world.
