UCF Percussion

The central Florida area and the UCF campus are thriving environments for aspiring undergraduate percussionists. With a comfortable size studio, there are many performance opportunities for every student within the department. We offer performance with exciting ensembles such as concert bands, symphony orchestra, percussion ensembles, steel band, jazz ensembles, the Marching Knights, and many other mixed chamber ensembles. Whether you want to be a professional performer or music educator, at UCF there is a place for you. The music department and percussion studio faculty team up and are determined to provide a world-class percussion education.
