The Terrapin Brass Quintet is the Graduate Fellowship Brass Quintet at the University of Maryland (UMD) School of Music. The participants were selected in Spring of 2021 and began their official position at UMD in Fall of 2021. Since then, they have put on several performances across campus and within The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center.
During this two-year fellowship, the members of the Terrapin Brass Quintet serve as ambassadors for the School of Music, where they provide music to and engage with local communities on campus and throughout Maryland.
Selected through a nationwide audition, the members of this group come from Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Ashburn, VA, and Silver Spring, MD. The Terrapin Brass Quintet consists of Julia Tsuchiya-Mayhew and Maria Carvell on trumpet, Emerson Miller on French horn, Eusung Choe on trombone, and Cameron Farnsworth on tuba.
Wearing a mask is required inside.
