About Us
Breakthrough Indoor Percussion’s mission is to inspire students of Arizona and the southwestern United States to achieve high standards of performance and provide an opportunity for the development and cultivation of life skills through learning music.
Breakthrough Indoor percussion ensemble is an organization dedicated to youth education in the arts. We offer men and women between the ages of 14-22 both performance and educational opportunities in the percussive arts. We hope to instill in our members a strong sense of personal achievement, growth, confidence, strong work ethic, responsibility, perseverance and dedication; in order to achieve a team goal. Our members will learn the craft of indoor percussion performance, develop the skills necessary to perform at a supremely high level and learn and perfect a show to be performed on several locations in front of thousands of spectators
Breakthrough Indoor Percussion was founded in the fall of 2009 by Cutler Boughn And Adam Maynes. Breakthrough Indoor Percussion is a Non-Profit Organization, and is dedicated to the education of the youth and young adults of Arizona, and the southwestern United States. Breakthrough is staffed by a dedicated group of music educators and designers who dedicate their time for the benefit of the ensemble’s members and their growth within our activity. It is to this end that the ensemble has been created to provide an environment for the members to grow both musically and socially within the ensemble, learning countless skills that will be useful in every aspect of life.
Breakthrough Indoor Percussion is a nationally competitive ensemble. They will be competing in their inaugural year with Winterguard Arizona (WGAZ), the Southern California Percussion Alliance (SCPA) and Winter Guard International (WGI) Sport of the Arts sanctioned events. These events combine music, movement, and props into a theatrical production performed in a gymnasium. From January to April the ensemble competes locally, regionally, and nationally against other indoor percussion ensembles. The ensemble is in season and active from early November through April.
