-Marimba Clinics and Master Classes-

Presentations are generally one to two hours long. These can be tailored to particular groups of marimbists and percussionists at a conservatory, university/college, high school, or regional festival/retreat.

Master classes are most typical, and include students or participants performing works for the marimba. Wilson can offer two specific clinics: one on the marimba, and one on being a young start-up artist.
