I'm moving to Baltimore to teach in the public schools. Through a yahoo group for Baltimore teachers, I met some folk who have been trying to put together a brass quintet for two years, only missing the tuba player - yeah for me. Now the the trombone player is leaving Baltimore for a job in PA.

I know there are trombone players on this list

Any of you trombone players work for BCPSS and want to be part of a BQ? Send me an email - tuba at music dot org.

Euphonium would be great as well.

What level of musician are you looking for? I could make a number of recommendations if you told me the level of the group.

Level? I haven't actually met the other three. I can play anything. They are at a minimum degreed professionals.

I'm sorry I can't offer you any assistance, but I can tell you that the range of abilities of "degreed professionals" can span a very wide range. I will admit, however, that usually there are some skills connected. I believe the request for further information that was given by mojo, was in the interest of giving you the best referral.

I know many band directors who could not"represent" on their own main instrument.And a few that could play a freelance gig on any band instrument and be convincing...

Of course. thank you.

My experience isn't as broad as yours. I have only met a few who could be convincing on many instruments and no one convincing on any instrument. It's nice to know that they exist.
