Ted Atkatz Percussion Seminar strives to provide the highest standard of percussion education with a curriculum that teaches community leadership alongside artistry.

TAPS faculty is comprised of the top performers and educators in the percussion field. Our classes cover a wide variety of styles, genres, and topics that allow TAPS fellows to experience and learn about all aspects of percussion.

TAPS sees cultural equity and inclusion as a critical element in achieving our mission to make percussion education accessible to a wider audience. We seek to provide the highest level of percussion education to students of all ages and backgrounds, all at no cost to our students.

TAPS believes that music brings people together, creating a diverse community of students, teachers, and audience members. Musical experiences help people realize our shared humanity and TAPS strives to create these transformative experiences for our community.

Our fellows are presented with incredible opportunities to hone in on their musicality and develop as performers through chamber performances, mock auditions, and solo performances. Providing students with high-quality training helps fellows best harness the power of music as a vehicle for self-expression.
