Why did you choose to attend WMU?
I decided to attend WMU because of the trombone studio and the many opportunities 澳门五分彩 provided. Dr. Wolfinbarger鈥檚 exceptional teaching, passion, kindness, and commitment to his students is what propelled me to success in my career as a trombone player and educator. My time studying with him allowed me to achieve my greatest accomplishment of being able to play in a professional symphony orchestra, teach at the collegiate level, and teach band in the public schools鈥攂est of all three worlds!
What are your fondest memories of your time in the trombone studio (or music program) at WMU?
My fondest memories at 澳门五分彩 include performing Wagner in the University Symphony Orchestra with my buddy Leland Matsumura (now a member of the US Navy Fleet Band), playing with my fellow graduate students and brass faculty for the 澳门五分彩 Brass Quintet Christmas Concerts, the amazing trombone choir concerts, and getting to watch in person the Green Bay Packers defeat the Detroit Lions at Ford Field when the Bronco Marching Band traveled to the game for a halftime performance!
