Every year, Pearl
and PAS set out to help create an atmosphere dedicated to presenting the best
performers and educators in the drum/percussion world today. We hope we have
succeeded in our effort to bring together a diverse collection of new
discoveries and innovative works with this year’s PASIC 2002. Judging from the
overwhelming positive feed back, the answer seems to be a unanimous yes!
