Hi Folks:
 
As application deadlines are fast approaching, I would like to let everyone know about the extraordinary performance and educational opportunities available at Brevard Music Center this summer. This six week long intensive program includes orchestral and wind ensemble performance, chamber music, brass choir, trombone choir, and private lessons.  We accept students by competitive audition, ages 14-29.
 
Low Brass faculty is David Jackson, trombone professor at the University of Michigan, Aubrey Foard, tubist of the Charlotte Symphony, and myself.
 

This summer, the orchestral repertoire is exceptional.  College trombonists will rotate in and out of the faculty orchestra as well as play each week in the college orchestra. High school trombonists play in the high school orchestra and wind ensemble every week.  Orchestral repertoire this summer includes:
