The program at Lawrence for trombone is designed to give a comprehensive education in performance and pedagogy. Students studying trombone may select from majors in music performance, music education, or theory/composition. Many students choose to pursue the double degree program - combining a music degree with a degree from the college of liberal arts and sciences. Students have many performing ensembles to choose to apply their playing ability in the larger form. All students study key solo repertoire, etudes, and orchestral or band excerpts through playing in some of the many performing ensembles and various chamber ensembles to choose from. The Trombone Choir has been used as the official ensemble for performances during University Convocations and is a prominent ensemble in the conservatory of which the entire studio participates.
