Who should attend Trombone Day?

Everyone!  SoCal Trombone Day is the largest trombone gathering in the region, and is a full day of all things trombone, aimed at students, teachers, enhtusaists, professionals, and hobbyists alike!  Get ready for some serious inspiration, with a full day of concerts, master classes, exhibits, and reading sessions!  Questions?  Please email Dr. Karen Marston, Mount San Antonio College, at kmarston1@mtsac.edu.

New for this year!

GROUPS: Attendees will be split into smaller groups (based on age), so that classes and reading sessions are both age-approproate, and more manageable in terms of groups size.  Plus, exhibit time will be built into your schedule!  No need to miss a fun concert or class in order to try out horns!

EDUCATOR TRACK: Teachers!  Want to bring your students to Trombone Day, AND get something out of it for yourself?  New for this year, we will offer an educator track – clinicians and classes just for you!  Looking for professional development opportunities?  Trombone Day has you covered!  Plus, bring a group of students, and get in for FREE!  Please email Dr. Karen Marston, at kmarston1@mtsac.edu, for more information!
