It has been a busy month for the Capital University trumpets!! Our Music Ed students had the opportunity to attend OMEA PDC in Columbus to expand their teaching skills, and had a blast! In addition, the Big Band had the honor of performing at PDC. Also, the Big Band hosted another successful Big Band ball! We are extremely grateful for these opportunities and are excited to see what the Big Band gets up to in the future!
