Welcome!

Marimba Madness was founded by Drew Lang and Chris Hanning in 2000 and serves local students by developing classical percussion techniques, especially those used in mallet percussion. This annual, week-long summer clinic is thought of as "drumline camp for the classical player." Participants leave with the knowledge and perspective necessary to become better players in all musical endeavors.

Our impressive faculty of percussionists perform for a living! Not only are they valuable for their teaching abilities, but for their wealth of playing experience as well. The helpful hints, little tricks, and different ways of approaching challenges learned from experiencing it day after day offer tremendous value to percussionists of any age!
