Jubal announces Jubal Indoor Percussion
For many years it has been the wish of our staff and members of the Jubal drumline to participate in the indoor percussion circuit during the winter months. After many talks, discussions, meetings, a lot of planning, writing and debating budgets this wish will now become reality. Jubal will have its own indoor percussion unit, carrying the name of 'Jubal Indoor Percussion'.
This winter Jubal will enter several competitions of the CGN and IPE circuits. The unit will perform the spectacular production of 'Breathe'. "The winter months are primarily used for studying new exercises, which sometimes becomes monotonous or even boring. Studying a completely new show has created a fantastic challenge to spend the winter months in a very effective and useful way", says staff coordinator Ramon Opmeer. "Members get a lot of new experience and knowledge while studying an indoor percussion show, which will obviously benefit our summer programme as well."
Together with American creative staff John Mapes and Ion Grom of the design team Box Six, a programme was found carrying the title 'Breathe'. The drill will be written by Jubal's own visual staff members Robin Bogert and Matt Thompson. In the show 'Breathe' Jubal will also be using electronic samples, a bass guitar and synthesizer.
Both IPE and CGN circuits have been notified of Jubal's scheduled participation. Jubal will participate in a minimum of three competitions. Unfortunately the IPE Championships in England will not be an option, since these will be held the same weekend Jubal has its annual Easter camp with the full corps in Someren.
