Studio Mission
Our mission is to provide a select group of talented students an engaged and rigorous schedule of trombone choir, chamber music, solo work, orchestral and wind ensemble study. Baylor trombone students become prepared for professional playing opportunities and teaching careers alike. The studio is a close knit group of focused individuals from diverse backgrounds who seek to be competitive in the music business. Time is spent on orchestral section playing, audition technique, listening sessions, score study, quartet and choir performance in various musical styles.

Solo recording project nearing completion!
My third solo CD will feature music by Anthony Barfield, Scott McAllister, Igor Stravinsky a hymn arrangement by Kurt Kaiser and work recorded on bass trumpet and organ by Persichetti.
This CD will feature several premiere recordings to include "TARKUS" - this will be the piano reduction version of the work for Trombone and Orchestra premiered by Mr. Phillips with the Harrisburg Symphony in 2007.
Other notable arrangements include Christian Paarup's arrangement of Stravinsky's Pulcinella Suite for trombone and piano.
The solo project is almost complete. I am excited about this and look forward to the official release by Potenza Music at ITF summer 2018.
I will be booking a few solo recital dates following the release of the CD. Please let me know if you are interested in allowing me to visit your campus,
Respectfully,
Brent Phillips
