Welcome
A Message from the IWBC President
Welcome to the International Women’s Brass Conference Web site! IWBC exists to “educate, develop, support & inspire all women brass musicians.” Everyone is invited to help serve and support this mission.
Founded by Susan Slaughter in 1991, the organization has held numerous conferences and competitions, commissioned new works by major female composers, and presented performances by the all-female all-star Monarch Brass.
This site contains information about the IWBC, as well as articles, photographs, newsletters, and links to other sites. I hope you find the information informative and inspirational, and encourage you to contact us with your feedback and suggestions for newsletter features and future conferences.
Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you.
