Greetings all--

WIBC is actually: IWBC which stands for " International Women's Brass Conference" and it is to going to be held this summer here at Illinois State University in Bloomington-Normal, IL from 17-21 June. The co-hosts are our trumpet professor: Dr. Amy Gilreath and the Tuba/Euphonium Professor at Milikin University (in Decator, IL): Dr. Sharon Huff.

There will be many wonderful performances from the top brass professionals in our field, and there is also a unique competition for the conference in that there are 3 levels of competition (both sexes are encouraged to participate).

** REMEMBER ** the IWBC is not JUST for women. In addition to hearing the low brass artistry of Junction, Velvet Brown, Bones-Apart, etc., Dan Parentoni and many others will also be making an appearance.

Illinois State University if very much looking forward to hosting this important conference, and our new Center for the Performing Arts will be a wonderful venue.

Please check out the link URL below to learn more, and feel free to email myself or Dr. Amy Gilreath with more questions/comments.

Hope to see you this summer at IWBC!

(...and at my upcoming "English Tuba" faculty recital THIS Wednesday (4/2). . . see post below.)

Sincerely,
Mike Forbes
Assistant Professor of Tuba/Euphonium
