March Mallet Madness
MARCH MALLET MADNESS was initiated by the JMU Percussion Studio on 1987 as a forum for performance on and discussion of keyboard percussion instruments. Along with providing playing opportunities for members of the studio, its intent is to promote performance on these instruments within the university and surrounding communities. Whenever possible, guest artists are brought to campus to participate. Past guests have included: Leigh Howard Stevens, Michael Burritt, Gordon Stout, Charles Bubeck, Jon Metzger, Randy Eyles, and Equal Temperament. The approach is informal, indeed at times lighthearted, allowing for interaction with the audience and thereby enhancing the educational experience for all involved. Every attempt is made to present as many styles of music as possible, including transcriptions and arrangements as well as original works.
