Indiana Percussion Association 2023 Season Preview
Welcome back to the Chops blog. The Indoor Percussion Association (IPA) season is about to begin, and we’re proud to once again be the presenting sponsor for the Indiana Percussion Association! Indoor Percussion continues to grow in popularity within the state and across around the world. We’re lucky to have one of the best and largest indoor percussion circuits in the country, and we’re proud to support the efforts of IPA and all of the participating groups. Along with local IPA contests, there’s also a national WGI regional, hosted by Franklin Central, where you can see performances by ensembles from all over the Midwest.
Following up on a successful year for indoor percussion here in Indiana at both IPA and WGI this year is sure to be one of the best ever! With the new Regional A class and some groups returning to the marching idiom after a few years in concert class we can’t wait to see everyone get their season underway.
