We know that you will find your experience to be rewarding, exciting, and educational. On behalf of the Executive Committee, Board of Directors, and members of PAS, I would like to thank Michael Varner and his committee for their time, effort, and commitment to presenting this event. Until you have been “in their shoes,” one does not realize the level of involvement that takes place in the production of PASIC. A special thanks must go to Mike’s wife, Marilyn, and their children, as the host’s job requires not only great skill and time management, but also great understanding and support from families and loved ones. We celebrate two events in particular at this PASIC that I find very significant. First, we are presenting our Wednesday evening concert featuring Amadinda Percussion Group with Robert van Sice in the Morton H. Myerson Symphony Center, which marks a major commitment on the part of PAS to present a concert of this type in a major, first-class concert venue. Second, we welcome the return of our friend, colleague, and PAS Hall of Fame member Gary Burton to the PASIC stage Friday evening. As you may know, a medical emergency required Gary to cancel his PASIC ’99 appearance. We are honored that he is with us this year. Finally, be sure to thank PAS Executive Director Randy Eyles and his staff for the spectacular work they do to administer and produce PASIC. It is more than a full-time job, and Randy has assembled a world-class staff to assist in every facet of the event. Thanks, and enjoy PASIC 2000! work and enthusiasm to make this the best PASIC ever. I appreciated knowing that I could call on them for any help that was necessary. I especially want to thank Randy Eyles, PAS Executive Director, for his advice, expertise, invaluable insight, and overall support. I also want to express my sincere appreciation to all of the PAS staff, who have worked tirelessly to ensure that every detail of the next few days has been handled. Apart from the PAS Staff, the convention runs on volunteer labor. I want to thank Karen Hunt, who organizes the logistics team each year, and all of her volunteers. Such a huge undertaking as this would not be possible without her organizational skills and energy. Behind the scenes, the percussion industry deserves special recognition. This is a huge financial undertaking, and without their willingness to go the extra mile, we could not make this convention happen. I also appreciate the local Dallas music stores for their willingness to answer calls for everything from instruments to transportation of music stands. Bravo one and all! Finally, I would like to thank my family—Marilyn, Devon, and Allison—for their endless patience in picking up the extra load while I was telephoning, e-mailing, sound checking, and working out PASIC details. Welcome to Dallas! While you are here, I encourage you to take a little extra time and savor all the experiences our city has to offer. We have included a restaurant guide in this program. Texas has a tradition of hospitality and we want you to enjoy all of the food and ambiance of the “Lone Star State” while you are here. I sincerely hope you have a wonderful and memorable time! PASIC Host’s Welcome 2000 DALLAS N O V E M B E R W elcome to the Lone Star State and PASIC 2000! The planning of this PAS International Convention has taken several years and reflects the combined vision and efforts of many people. Percussion is unique in the field of music in that it embraces a world diversity that transcends borders and cultural boundaries. PASIC is a gathering of percussion enthusiasts from around the world, ranging from exuberant, novice beginners to the most legendary professionals. The experiences you will have over the next few days will be savored for a lifetime. PASIC offers the opportunity to exchange ideas, meet new friends, renew old 1 5 – 1 8 friendships, listen to great performances, and be inspired by the finest talents the world has to offer. As you study the program, you will see that it is broken down into areas such as Drumset, Marching Percussion, World Percussion, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion/ Timpani, Electronic Percussion, educational sessions, and concert events. In addition to attending sessions of your particular area of interest, I encourage you to sample each of the other areas in order to truly gain an appreciation for the enthusiasm and endless possibilities in the field of percussion. I would like to thank the PASIC Host Committee and the PAS Executive Committee, as well as the officers of the PAS Texas Chapter, for all the hard 6 PASIC 2000 Planning Committee Michael Varner PASIC 2000 Host Steve Beck General Manager, Pro-Mark Alan Black Director/Associate Director, Midwestern State University Paul Bissel Del Mar College;Corpus Christi Symphony Ron Fink Retired Percussion Instructor, University of North Texas Mark Ford Coordinator of Percussion Activities, University of North Texas–Denton George Frock Director of Percussion University of Texas–Austin Genaro Gonzalez Professor of Music at Southwest Texas State University Karen Hunt Logistics Coordinator Scott Harris Director of Percussion at Stephen F.

Marimba One’s high level of professionalism and pursuit of excellence sets a benchmark that more percussion manufacturers should aspire to.” Daniel Druckman, New York Philharmonic The Juilliard School Ruff Notes Publishing 405 Christi Lane Princeton, TX 75407 Phone: 972-734-2664 E-mail: rbeckham@fastlane.net Web: www.fastlane.net/~rbeckham Publisher. 114 Sabian, Ltd. 701 219 Main Street Meductic NB Canada E6H 2L5 Phone: 506-272-2019 Fax: 506-272-2081 E-mail: sabian@sabian.com Web: www.sabian.com Cymbals, gongs, crotales and metallic percussion instruments.

DAN WOJCIECHOWSKI 89 90 PERCUSSIVE ARTS SOCIETY HISTORY D uring the late 1950s, it became the custom for a small group of percussionists and interested music directors to gather informally and discuss percussion problems during the Mid-West Band Clinic held each December at Chicago’s Sherman House. During the 1960 Clinic, Remo Belli, a member of the group and an exhibitor at the convention, invited the others to dinner at the hotel’s restaurant, and during discussion, they developed the idea of forming a percussion organization. in its familiar booklet form. Mr. Canedy served as de facto president through 1964, when, at the December Percussive Arts Society meeting in Chicago, a constitution was adopted and regular officers were elected. Gordon Peters became the first President of PAS; Jack McKenzie took the position of First Vice-President and Mr. Canedy continued as Executive Secretary. Also elected were a Board of Directors and an Editorial Board. With this solid structure, the Society became increasingly influential, expanding its committee activities to address important percussion issues and making policy decisions that would result in important contributions to all areas of percussion. A Pictured above are several of the fourteen founding members of the Society. (left to right, near side of table) Remo Belli, Jack McKenzie, Don Canedy, Mervin Britton, (left to right, far side of table) Hugh Soebbing, Vern Reamer and Sid Lutz, and Kenneth Leisen. W hen Mr. Belli returned home to California, he enlisted the services of Robert Winslow, a professional percussionist and a North Hollywood high school band director, to carry out the details of forming an organization. In early 1961, Mr. Winslow sent a series of letters concerning membership to interested parties. Among the stated goals of the organization were: “to stimulate a greater interest in percussion performance and teaching,” and “to promote better teaching of percussion instruments.” In May of 1961, Mr. Winslow sent a letter proclaiming: “We are underway. The Percussive Arts Society is open for business,” and in September, the Society sent its first publication, Percussive Arts Society Bulletin, printed on a mimeograph machine donated by Mr. Belli, to the membership. n important expansion occurred in 1967 when James L. Moore’s already successful Percussive Notes became an official PAS publication. Another milestone was achieved in 1969 when the Society was incorporated in Indiana as the Percussive Arts Society, Incorporated, a status it maintained until 1985 when it was reincorporated under the laws of Illinois. Beginning in 1971, performances and clinics 1965 PAS Logo called “Days of Percussion” were held in conjunction with the yearly business meetings. In 1974, the first Percussive Arts Society National Conference (PASNC) was held in Anaheim and at California State University at Northridge. It was hosted by then-California State Chapter President Lloyd McCausland and Joel Leach of CSU/Northridge. The PASNC evolved into the Percussive Arts Society International Convention that we know today as PASIC. The first PASIC was held in 1976 at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY, and was hosted by John Beck, the Eastman School and the New York State Chapter. A fter three Bulletins, a determination was made to transfer the administrative and publication duties of the Society to Professor Donald Canedy, who was the percussion instructor and band director at Southern Illinois University. In April of 1963, Mr. Canedy, with the advice of a distinguished editorial board and an able group of contributing editors, published the new PAS journal, Percussionist (in later years called Percussive Notes Research Edition) 1963 PAS Logo The first Hall of Fame awards were presented December 16, 1972. Three of the five recipients are pictured here. Roy Knapp, Haskell Harr, William F. Ludwig, Sr. PERCUSSIVE ARTS SOCIETY HISTORY I t is important to note several significant awards presented annually by the Society. First, since 1972, PAS has inducted some of the most important people in percussion into its Hall of Fame. Secondly, since 1974, the PAS Composition Contest has encouraged the production of hundreds of new works, many of which have become part of the standard percussion repertoire. During the 1990s four additional annual awards were implemented to recognize PAS volunteers and their importance to the society: PAS Outstanding Chapter President Award; Outstanding PAS Supporter Award; PAS President’s Industry Award; and Outstanding PAS Service Award. Thus, the Percussive Arts Society, which began in 1961 as a group of fourteen concerned percussionists, Year City has grown to more than 6,000 members worldwide, with significant influence on percussion performance, education, composition, publication and manufacturing. Today, the Percussive Arts Society is headquartered in Lawton, Oklahoma, where the administrative offices and its museum of rare and unusual percussion instruments are located in the Society’s new building in Elmer Thomas Park. Construction of the building was funded by PAS members and by the McMahon Foundation in Lawton. The grand opening was in August 1992. Phase II of the building project involved the expansion of the museum and was completed in 1995. Phase III of the building project will conclude late this year, finishing nearly 11,000 square feet of beautiful museum, library and office space.
