THE UNIVERSITY FACULTY SHOWCASE RECITAL SERIES
The International Trombone Festival is proud to showcase dedicated and talented university and collegiate teaching artists. Building on the success and popularity of our inaugural program in 2018, the University Faculty Showcase Recital Series at the 2019 ITF will feature top performers, who have been chosen by a peer-reviewed, adjudicated application process. These outstanding trombonists will perform new and upcoming repertoire, and showcase the diversity of trombone playing, as it is being practiced and taught around the country.
