AIM Needs Sponsors and Recipients
ITA is looking for Sponsors and Recipients
for the Assist an International Member (AIM) program.
By donating the ITA student rate of $30 you can sponsor
the yearly membership of an international trombonist without
the means for making personal payment, typically from low-income
countries.
While some members make a one-time donation, others have
sponsored the same individuals for many years. We encourage
you to participate by going to www.trombone.net/aim and
making a donation.
A sponsorship can be for a specific person, or be a general
donation which allows ITA to assign a recipient to you.
Concurrent with this request, we are working to make our
list of individuals in need of a sponsor longer! If you
know anybody eligible please send names and complete mailing
addresses to ITA's AIM Membership Coordinator, David Begnoche at david@trombone.net.
Making a donation or adding a recipient can open a new
world getting to know fellow trombone players you would
normally never come across! Please AIM today!
Quotations Database
Has a teacher ever said something that made a big impression
on you? Perhaps it was an insight that helped your playing
or motivated you to work harder. The words of a good teacher
can have a profound impact.
ITA has compiled a database of
inspiring words from a variety of trombonists. Read them
all and submit helpful quotes from your experiences.
The ITA Recordings Database lists almost 900 hundred recordings
of trombone repertoire. An example of the list is below
with the complete database being fully accessible and searchable
in our members only section.
