February 2012

 

2012 ETW and ITA Winners! 
 
 
We did it again!  Congratulations to the UIUC Jazz Trombone Ensemble for winning the International Trombone Association's Kai Winding Jazz Trombone Ensemble Competition!   In March, the group will be performing at the ETW in Fort Myers, VA and then in July, we'll be headed to Paris, France for our feature performance at the 2012 ITFFélicitations tout le monde 

 

And yes, I'm the current cover model of the ITA Journal. The article contains excerpts from a book called, Bonanza by Julie Gendrich -- a wonderful writer and good friend.  It came as quite a surprise but it's an honour to be on the cover.

UIUC: 

Are you interested in the jazz trombone studio at the UofI?  There are lots of playing opportunities at the school such as the Jazz Trombone Ensemble, the Concert Jazz Band, several jazz combos, Latin Bands and even gigging at local clubs!

If you're in the Champaign-Urbana area or even the Chicago area (we're a 2 1/2 hour drive south or a 30 minute plane ride!!), don't hesitate to drop by Smith Hall to say hi, wander the halls, talk to other students, check out a rehearsal or a concert!

Have a great fall semester!!
