Meet lab members playing in the McMaster University Percussion Ensemble:
We complement music research with music performance.
Humanities Media Computing visited the McMaster University Percussion Ensemble to talk with students about the group’s incredible musical growth. The result is this engaging “info-mercial” featuring excerpts from recent performances, explanation about the group’s role in offering an artistic outlet for students from a variety of Faculties, and discussion of the ensemble’s role in community engagement. The clip features interviews with several students who both play in the ensemble and work the Lab: Raven Hebert-Lee (Humanities), Monique Tardif (Science), Zach Louch (Humanities), Shawn Kerr (Humanities), as well as ensemble members Christine Chung (Health Sciences) and Stewart Crocker (Humanities). |

It will maintain its aspect ratio regardless. This video and text is in a two-column table. Below is the same video with nothing in its way. |
