Inuksuit at PASIC
White River State Park becomes the ultimate percussion concert hall to celebrate 50 years of the Percussive Arts Society. Inuksuit was inspired by stone sentinels constructed by the Inuit over the centuries. Pulitzer Prize-winning composer John Luther Adams wrote the concert-length piece with a vision of performers being widely spaced throughout an open area, and Saturday's celebration, led by PAS Hall of Famer and world-renowned percussionist Steven Schick, will fulfilll that vision. Participation is free, but you must bring your own instruments.
