UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — The Penn State Trombone Choir will perform at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 18, in 128 Music Building II. Admission is free.

The Penn State Trombone Choir was founded in 1986 by Mark Lancaster Lusk. Since that time, the choir has garnered considerable regional and national success, performing multiple times at state music education conferences in Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio, as well as NAfME (National Association for Music Education) Eastern Division and national conferences. The ensemble has also accepted invitations to perform at the New York Brass Conference, the Eastern Trombone Workshop, and the International Trombone Workshop.

The group has featured many of today’s finest trombone artists as well as the talented members of the Penn State performance faculty and distinguished alumni. The Penn State Trombone Choir is a founding member of the Frühling Posaunen Festival which includes Penn State, the Ithaca Trombone Troupe, and the Eastman Trombone Choir in an annual concert series. A tradition of excellent composers and arrangers has done much to give the Penn State Trombone Choir its distinctive sound.
