MOREThe Wanda L. Bass School of Music at Oklahoma City University announces Graduate Assistantships in trumpet, trombone, horn, and tuba starting with the fall semester each year. Graduate assistants are to play in the Blackwelder Brass, a scholarship graduate brass quintet with duties that include outreach concerts, university events and church residencies. Graduate assistants are also expected to play in other university ensembles as assigned. The winners of these positions will receive a full-tuition scholarship (does not include fees), modest monthly stipends and significant pay for performing in churches on weekends.
