The group's projects include a broad range of musical events, which sometimes include percussion workshops and theatre performances. All 7 members of the group are young Slovene musicians, who individually play in the [[Slovene Philharmonic Orchestra]] and the Orchestra of the [[Slovene National Theatre Maribor]] as well as a range of different brass bands and chamber ensembles (for example, MD7 Ensemble, [[Slavko Osterc Ensemble]]). They all also have solo careers. |

The members of the group Davor Plamberger, Barbara Kresnik, Matevž Bajde, Franci Krevh, Dejan Tamše, Tomaž Lojen and Damir Korošec, come from Maribor, Slovenj Gradec, Ljubljana, Celje and Velenje. The SToP repertoire consists mostly of 20th- and 21st-century classical music, as well as contemporary, electrical-acoustic music and compositions by the group's members. The group also aims to bring well-known contemporary percussion works to the Slovene stage as well as to participate in a variety of projects that incorporate different artistic genres from choral music to contemporary dance performances. Some compositions have been specially commissioned by StoP from Slovene and foreign contemporary composers. The group presents around 30 concerts each year, many of which are aimed at young audiences and have an educational purpose. The group strives to introduce to their audience, through their musical events and workshops, a broad variety of classical and ethnological instruments as well as unconventional instruments like kitchen utensils, car brakes, screws, and hammers. The percussion group introduced such various instruments and different techniques of playing with the works of renowned composer Manfred Menke in a performance called Small Kitchen Music.
Projects and concerts
In October 2009, SToP played works by Edgard Varèse with the Slowind Quintet at the Slowind Festival in Ljubljana. The group also collaborated that same year with the choreographer Matjaž Farič and pianist Milko Lazar in the performance Shiver: Sound on Skin [Srh: Zvok na koži] which premiered at Cankarjev dom. The production, produced by Flota Institute, was selected for the 6th Balkan Dance Platform held in Ljubljana in April 2011 and later invited to the festival euro-scene Leipzig (Germany), for a performance in November 2011.
In 2010, the group collaborated with the Japanese percussionist Haruka Fujii, with whom they toured Slovenia with performances that combined both Asian and Slovene drumming traditions. SToP has also played with the Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra in Sombor (Croatia) and with the percussion group Bing Bang in Zagreb (Croatia). Several internationally-renowned percussionists and composers, including Evelyn Glennie, Nebojša J. Živkovič, and Bernhard Wulff, have worked with SToP. The group has toured to Spain, Italy, Austria, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Montenegro, and South Korea. Highlights of 2011 also include a collaboration with the recognised Brazilian composer and percussionist Ney Rosauro and a performance of his works in October at the House of Culture (Hiše kulture) in Celje.
