Part international drill team, part polycultural rhythm section, the Crosspulse Percussion Ensemble weaves together synchronized movement, world drumming, lush vocals and innovative “body music.” Each of the five ensemble members brings their own deep traditions to the floor, to mix and mingle, creating a unique global music experience! Utilizing the oldest musical instrument, the human body, with instrumental webs of hand drums, bells, claves, gongs, trap set, banjo, voice and more — the group embodies a virtual world tour. Under the direction of founder Keith Terry for over three decades, Crosspulse is an innovative organization dedicated to rhythm-based music and dance. Crosspulse has been hailed worldwide for its many projects including the International Body Music Festival, now in its seventh year. There will be a fun Q&A session afterwards — designed just for the kids!...
