We had that a few years ago from Toby Hanks, but I am not sure he really intended to talk about it beforehand and may not have really prepared for it. At the time, it seemed as though it was such a consuming topic for him that he couldn't avoid talking about even though he hadn't intended to. Having a real medical perspective to supplement his player's perspective would have been helpful, and could have branched into a general discussion of general tremor-related problems.

This could be broadened to discuss occupational difficulties that we face as we age. Gene talked about aging and his presentation was one of the highlights of the last few years. There is more good stuff to be mined in this subject area. The college kids will be bored, and maybe some of the younger military folks, too.

As far as performers, I missed jazz night this year. I'm hoping we can bring that back.

Or Patrick Sheridan again. Half music, half comedy. I'd love to see that again.

I'd like to see one of the top Mexican Banda groups.

Also Gravity

I'd also like to have a masterclass where they pick adult amatuers, instead of college/high school students.

Tubists will need to diversify and pursue different styles, if they want to make a living playing. That is becoming more of a reality with every passing year.
THANK YOU!!!!

Everyone please read this, and I hope the USAB will come through with some of these acts, I'd really enjoy that.

That, and more CC tuba playing. How about someone like Don Harry?

Wasn't Baadsvik there 2 years ago? But I mean, Fnugg never gets old.

I think it'd be cool if he or someone else could give a masterlass on multiphonics and the like. I think that'd be super enjoyable.

Pat Sheridan is always a joy to listen to and a great stage presence.

Has Patrick Harrild ever been invited?

Something on an inner game type discussion (Barry Green or the soprano on her head lady)

musicians health and injuries (not focal distonia, but injuries)

focal distonia class

promoting your small ensemble

horn manufacturing or the business of selling tubas

Breathing Gym (or brass gym)

I would also like to see some of the people solo with the brass band and not just just concert band or orchestra
I'll probably think of more later,

Harrild and LSO brass

Great suggestion. I met Pat in person for the first time in January. What a great player and very nice person. He mentioned the possibility of bringing some LSO brass together for a concert/masterclass/seminar when they are in the States.

The soprano on her head lady died; so I guess it would have to be Greene.

I was recently in Spain and got the chance to see the Spanish Brass - quite impressive... Would be great to have at the DC conference.

Anyone know if there is a list of who has played in the past? Maybe an entirely new thread.

I have been to the last three conferences so I know who played at those, but before then I have no clue. My wife might say I have no clue to begin with and I know my kids would!
