Re: [Trombonists Anonymous] So what's happening?


Hi I'm Elizabeth, and I've been playing for 9 almost 10 years now.
I'm a chemistry major with a biology minor. I still play in the VWIL
band here on campus, I go to a small all girls school and the only
band we have is VWIL and I am the only trombone player here, they
even had to get music for me when I joined. I would love to learn
more because as of right now the only thing I am doing is playing
music very similar to what I played in Jr High so any suggestions
would be welcome.
