Join the Butler University Percussion Ensemble for an unforgettable concert, showcasing a full spectrum of percussion in ways you’ve never imagined. Step into a world where rhythm takes center stage, and every beat tells a story. Our amazing Butler students perform an endless array of percussion instruments — from the thunderous depths of bass drums and timpani to the shimmering tones of vibraphones, marimbas, and cymbals. With each strike of the mallet, each hit of the drum, you’ll be transported into a world of complex rhythms and textures. Under the direction of Artist-in-Residence Jon Crabiel, the ensemble will showcase an exciting program featuring works by some of the most innovative composers in percussion and beyond. Whether you’re a fan of classical, jazz, pop, contemporary music, or world percussion, this high-energy performance has something for every listener.
