World Percussion Group (WPG)

The World Percussion Group (WPG), founded in 2016 under the direction of percussionist and professor Tim Palmer, is regarded as one of the most original international percussion ensembles. It brings together outstanding young musicians from more than 45 countries. After successful performances across the United States, Scandinavia and Central Europe, the group arrives in Izola, where it will present a contemporary and expressive performance, rich in energy, cultural diversity and technical virtuosity.

About the event

The concert represents the highlight of a day dedicated to high-level musical education. Talented WPG percussionists will take the stage with a dynamic and engaging programme. The evening concert will also feature special guests: participants of the professional training led by maestro Gabriele Petracca, percussionist at the Teatro Lirico G. Verdi in Trieste, together with the international WPG team.

The event is organised in collaboration with Art Kino Odeon, the Italian Self-Governing Community Koper and the Italian Community of Hrvatini.

Visitors are warmly invited to immerse themselves in the energy of international percussion and enjoy a unique musical experience.
