<p class="font_8">Cory Hills, a passionate performer and educator, created Percussive Storytelling in 2010 with the goal of making classical music and storytelling come alive for children. Since its inception, he has delighted over 135,000 children in nine different countries with more than 500 dynamic programs. With two award-winning audio CDs and children's books to his name, Cory has successfully brought the arts out of the concert hall and into communities around the world.</p>
<p class="font_8"><br></p>
<p class="font_8">Percussive Storytelling was born out of Cory's desire to bridge the gap between avant-garde percussion concerts and their dwindling audiences. Through a fusion of percussion instruments and creative storytelling, he discovered a magical way to connect with young and old alike.</p>
<p class="font_8"><br></p>
<p class="font_8">This family event features percussive stories drawn from various sources, including folktales, adapted tales, classics, and original stories. The instruments and compositional styles hail from all corners of the globe, creating a multicultural and interdisciplinary experience.</p>
<p class="font_8"><br></p>
<p class="font_8">The beauty of Percussive Storytelling lies in its simplicity, making it accessible to anyone. Whether you're a percussion expert or a curious beginner, Cory's program brings the joy of storytelling and music to life, right here in Sierra Madre.</p>
