This is such a wonderful opportunity for young trumpeters to have world class judges, facilities, mentors, and events throughout a week long seminar.!!

The solo competition is really for two age groups:
1. Junior - ages 13-18, Solo - "Oliver's Birthday" by Bruce Broughton and a solo piece.
2. Senior - ages 18-26, Solo - "L'Esprit de la Trompette" by James Stephenson and a solo piece.

If you get selected, then the conference fees are waived! Such a no-brainer to at least try and send in a tape! Wish I was still eligible....

Who all is going to the World Trumpet Society 2019 Seminar?

EXTENDED DEADLINE

Due to a number of applicants having issues with recordings and pianists, we have extended the competition deadline to Sunday, June 16.

If you are a young trumpeter or a trumpet teacher, please consider our competition as we have some great prizes (see above) and opportunities to meet some of the best players out there at the seminar!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, my email is aaron.hodgson@gmail.com
