A sophomore music performance major at Murray State was triumphant in a Kentucky Music Teachers Association competition after submitting an audition in October.
Luke Weatherly, from Paris, Tennessee, won the Bluegrass Brass Young Artist Competition for ages 19-26 for three solo trombone pieces.
Weatherly is a student of Li Kuang, professor of music, who informed him about the opportunity to compete in the KMTA competition. As an aspiring professional musician, Weatherly jumped on the chance to enter.
“I get to put myself out there in the small world of music,” Weatherly said. “The countless hours of working on details in the music and my sound pays off when I get to perform.”
