- Central Michigan Univ. Percussion Ensemble February 16, 2008
- A night of memorable sounds performed by CMU Percussion Ensemble led by Andrew Spencer will amaze you. This concert promises to be an eclectic adventure of rhythms. This past year the CMU Percussion Ensemble was named one of three University winners in the Percussive Arts Society International Competition (PASIC). The PASIC competition had entries from three continents and the winners were selected through submission of unmarked CDs. By winning this international competition, the CMU Percussion Ensemble won the right to perform a showcase concert at the PASIC convention in Austin Texas in November of 2006. This honor goes only to a small fraction of the percussion programs in the country.
