2021-2022 Commission Project
and Fall Fundraising Campaign
David. F Wilborn
|
TTI is engaging in a commissioning project with renowned composer David F. Wilborn to create a brand new octet that will be premiered at our 2022 Institute next June!
Dr. Wilborn is a Professor of Music at Texas A&M University, an outstanding bass trombonist, and a highly regarded composer of engaging and enjoyable brass music. Dr. Wilborn is writing this brand new piece of music specifically for the TTI participants, and will be joining us at the 2022 Institute to work with the trombone choir, and give the world premier of this brand new composition. To make this happen, we need your help. We’ve set a goal to raise $1000 by Giving Tuesday, November 30th. As always, these tax-deductible donations support the activities of TTI, to provide the highest quality experience for our participants, and this year, to make sure that we can complete this commissioning project. |
Thanks for your support of TTI!
