The University of Utah Trumpet Ensemble performed at the 50th annual International Trumpet Guild (Official) Conference taking place at the historic Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY.

They performed a prelude concert to one of the many sessions and clinics offered throughout the week. Their performance of “Intrada Dramatica” by Joe Price was a thrilling and exciting contribution to conference’s spectacular lineup of performers and special topics.

They truly threw it down and showed what the Utes Trumpets bring to the table!

Way to go Utes Trumpets! 🎺🎺🔥🔥

The “Crimson Brass,” our graduate trumpet ensemble, competed in the International Trumpet Guild’s Chamber Competition at the Eastman School of Music as part of the 50th ITG Conference. The Crimson Brass were among a handful of groups selected to compete at this year’s competition over hundreds of entries.

They performed Tony Plog’s “Contrasts” which was co-commissioned by Dr.Shelton and the Eastman Trumpet Ensemble while he was there back in 2015 and taken to the National Trumpet Competition that same year.

We are so thrilled to see our student colleagues out here killing it on an international stage at such a prestigious and historic event.

Way to go Utes Trumpets!
