International Trombone Week might begin on April 12... but that's just a date. We celebrate all month and then some.  

So, here's hoping you'll get in the trombone spirit starting right now. The next few days include Penn State's Trombone Choir, Ball State's Trombone Choir, The Cleveland Orchestra's Tuneful Trombone, and The Metropolitan Opera's La Traviata (Verdi).

April 17 is International Haiku Poetry Day... and the world celebrates the trombone, too.

Why not write a poem or haiku about shimmering trombone music, your faithful instrument? 🎵 Here's one by TromboneWeek. 🙂 Perhaps the "pebble" is a long tone?
