“Turning Point is a fast paced, roller coaster of a ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat and searching for air until the last note!” said Joe Roach, Director of Programs. 

An athlete stands at the top of the mountain, staring down the gauntlet of speed, danger and excitement.  Seeing every twist and turn before it happens.  Time slows down for the adrenaline junky as the crowd holds their breathe in excitement and disbelief.  So will be the journey for Cavaliers Indoor Percussion as they run, twist, turn and roll from one thrilling moment to the next.  

With almost no room to exhale, the audience joins us for a fast paced, whirlwind show of non-stop excitement.  Sit back, strap in and enjoy the ride.

“Turning Point takes you on an adrenaline journey through the continuous musical and physical expression of excitement and adventure! It is by far our most aggressive program musically and physically.”  Paul Wiercioch, Manager & Visual Caption Head.

The ensemble’s creative team and educational leadership includes Director Joe Roach, Manager & Visual Coordinator Paul Wiercioch, Musical Arrangements by Alan Miller, Sound Design by Geoff Schoeffel, Visual Design by Jason Palmer, Costume Design by Byron Valentine at Fred J. Miller Inc., Set Design by Doug Gardner at Field and Floor FX, and additional design support by Paul Wiercioch, Karen Mae Wesolek, Lloyd Puckett and Lamar Branson-Long.
