Formed in the Fall of 1992, the MU Trombone Choir serves as a laboratory extension of the MU trombone studio. The ensemble specializes in performing original music written for 4- to 16- part ensembles of trombones. Students are afforded an opportunity to perform works that push the limits of 20th-century trombone technique while focusing on aesthetic elements such as balance, blend, intonation, timbre and style. During its brief history, the group has performed in many prestigious venues including the International Trombone Festival, the Music Educators National Conference (MENC) National Convention, and the Missouri Music Educators Association Convention. The MU Trombone Choir is directed by Dr. Timothy Howe.
