U of R Brass Day!

Brass Day!
Hosted by the University of Regina


Brass Day is an optional, hands-on event where students will play their instruments, get some new music, and leave with some great tips on furthering their development as a musician and brass player.

Students get the opportunity to work with some of Saskatchewan's greatest brass players and teachers. These include:
     Miles Newman & Natalie Fuller - Trumpets
     Alison Thiele & Richard Burdick - French Horns
     David Dick & Jeremy Drotar - Trombones
     Mark Preece - Tuba/Baritone

Our featured guest is Tom McCaslin, a former student of John Griffiths, and of course a Regina product!
