Harrisburg, Pa, May 2009
There
is no place like an ITG conference to renew old friendships and make lots of new
ones. The organization was outstanding, fine music was endless, and the smiles
were continuous. Granted, the noise level make it difficult to audition fine
trumpets. But interest in the SIMA helped generate our best week of sales ever
in the following days. Players just needed a few days to let the blisters in the
ears subside!
The SC3 mouthpiece was a big hit as they rolled out the
door. The following pictures will give you a taste of the big event and elicit
some fond memories from everyone that attended.
