Harmonic Whirlies Debut – The Angels are Coming

The Angels are Coming rehearsal

Who knew you could make such beautiful sounds from plastic pipes? Turns out all you need are some specially designed flexible PVC pipes and you've got harmonic whirlies!

About a year ago, I went to a drumming camp with my dad and we started talking to one of the guys (his name was Wayne) there about my idea for a show that involves visual effects. Being inspired by a flexible PVC tube I brought back from the tip shop one day, I told him that I was interested in figuring out how to make tuned,

First Composition Sold!

Mansfield State High School Performs Junglemania

I've sold my first composition!!!!

I recently added a new section to the website to sell my compositions and, with the help of my dad Gal Baras (check out his website), I'm really happy with the end product and it's working too!

Not too soon after I finished adding everything I got a message from one of my friend's private students who was looking for a piece to play at his school's percussion soiree. I was really glad that he was

Mac-Cussion Bedazzles Again!

Last Friday, Mac-Cussion flew to Melbourne for the next round of Australia's Got Talent. We were so excited!

Our school principal decided to surprise us and when we were about to go on stage, we saw that our parents were in the audience! She had secretly flown one parent from each family to see us play and support us. My mum even brought little packets of lollies for all of us with little cards that said "Mac-Cussion Rulz".
