As we enter the 3rd week of classes here at UNI, it’s been a real pleasure to welcome new colleagues to the Brass Area. To celebrate, we had a great Bar-b-que with Brass faculty and spouses to celebrate the Labor Day holiday and greet our new colleagues. Nothing like a plate of Ribs, Smoked Turkey and Turkey & Sundried Tomato Sausage to get a group of brass players going!

New to the Brass Area this year is our new Assistant professor of Horn, Dr. Yu-Ting Su (Tina). Tina has degrees from Eastman, Julliard and Stonybrook and most recently was a member of the horn section of the Taipei Symphony.

Our new trombone professor is Dr. Chris Buckholz. His degrees are from Wake Forest, Yale and Michigan. Most recently, Chris was the Lead Trombone with the US Army Jazz Ambassadors.

Tina and Chris bring great energy and outstanding quailty to our faculty. We are all looking forward to the coming years together.
