ITg Conference

About me:

Registration for ITG2010 is Now Open! Registration, accommodation and tours can now be booked via the Conference website. Discounted early bird rates are available until 6 March 2010. For information on how to book your place at ITG2010 please visit http://www.australiantrumpetguild.com/itg2010/registration.html I am very proud that Sydney and Australia will be the site for the 35th Annual International Trumpet Guild onference. In 2010, the first ITG Annual Conference to come to the southern hemisphere, will be a gathering of the world’s best trumpet players - teaching, entertaining and antalising audiences with their unique talents. This will be an event for everyone - young students, seasoned professionals, enthusiastic come-back players and anyone with a love of the trumpet family of instruments. I am very excited that we have scheduled a youth day on July 6 as a prelude to the main 4 day conference. Of course, delegates of all ages are welcome to come to all 5 days. High School students from the USA will be especially pleased that they are able to attend an ITG conference that is held AFTER their school year finishes. Youth day will be aimed at the younger developing player but there should be plenty of pedagogical information and just pure inspiration to make it worthwhile for any player aiming at getting back to basics. Each ITG conference is different and Sydney, with all it has to offer the international visitor, is sure to be a stand-out event. Why not start your planning early and arrange to stay longer, before or after the event, to have a look around Sydney, Australia and even, perhaps, New Zealand. It will be worth the trip and worth the stay.
