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 $35 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.

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.
