Dr. Frank Romero received a BME at New Mexico State University,

MME at the University of North Texas, and a Doctorate in Trumpet

Performance from the University of Oklahoma. From 1992 2001, he was

Associate Professor of Music at Oklahoma Baptist University where his

He recently completed research at the Conservatoire Superieur

National de Musique de Paris (Paris Conservatory of Music) and was

invited to Guatemala City, Guatemala to conduct workshops in music

education and musical instrument repair at the Conservatorio de Musica.

Dr. Romero toured Austria, Germany and Czechoslovakia in January 2005 as a member of the

NMSU Faculty Quintet.

His professional career spans playing with the El Paso Symphony Orchestra and the

New Mexico Symphony Orchestra. Included are performances with Reba McEntire, Roy Clark,

The Ice Capades, Bob Hope, Rita Moreno, The Temptations, The FourTops and The Supremes.

Dr. Romero is currently principal trumpet with the Las Cruces Symphony Orchestra,

section trumpet with the El Paso Opera Orchestra, and is active as a jazz musician in the El

Paso/Las Cruces area.

John Harbaugh is Professor of trumpet at Central Washington University.

He has over 20 years of college teaching experience. As a jazz educator

bands under his direction have performed at the Montreux, North Sea and

Notre Dame Jazz festivals. . His trumpet students have consistently been in

the semi-final rounds of the National Trumpet Competition in both the

undergraduate and graduate divisions. In 2002 his trumpet ensemble placed

third at that event. In 2004 the CWU trumpet ensemble was invited to

perform at the International Trumpet Guild Convention in Denver. His

professional experience includes touring with Tom Jones, Paul Anka, and

Buddy Rich. He appears on three Grammy-nominated albums, and has

recorded as a jazz soloist with the London Symphony. He was featured jazz soloist at the 2004

Western International Band Clinic and again in 2005 as both a clinician and soloist. He is

principal trumpet in the Yakima Symphony and has been a member of regional orchestras in Iowa,

Washington, and Alaska. He is currently a board member of the National Trumpet Competition

and continues to work as a soloist/clinician for C.G. Conn/Selmer Corporation and has appeared in

the U.S. Canada, and Taiwan.

Sergeant First Class Gil Hoffer plays the trumpet in The United States

Army Concert Band (Pershing’s own). Gil began playing the trumpet at

the age of nine, under the tutelage of his stepfather, Bob Day, a 33-year

veteran of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. In 1981, he went on to

study music at Indiana University, where he completed a bachelor’s degree.

In the fall of 1986, Gil joined the army and left in 1989 and returned to

Indiana University for further study. He completed a master’s degree in

1992, and began working toward a doctorate degree in brass pedagogy. In

1994, he returned to active duty as a member of the Army Ground Forces

Band in Atlanta and in 1998, he won a spot in Pershing’s Own as a member

of the Ceremonial Band, and the following year he won his current position in the Concert Band.

He is a regularly featured soloist on the band’s summer Capitol Concert Series, and

was a featured soloist with The Army Blues at the 2004 Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic in

Chicago. He is also active as a freelance musician in the Washington DC metropolitan area, and

plays principal trumpet in the Maryland Philharmonic Orchestra.

Through the years, Gil has studied trumpet playing and been influenced by many great

players and teachers. Included among them are Bill Adam, Charles Gorham, Bernard Adelstein,

John Rommel, Edmund Cord, John Harbaugh, James Thompson, and Steve Hendrickson. He

continues to benefit from those experiences daily in practice and performance, and is forever

grateful to those who have freely shared with him their knowledge and shown him patience along

the way.
