The International Trumpet Guild (ITG) is a group of about 6000 trumpet players from around the world. Four journals are sent out every year to all members along with occasional instructional and practice items (i.e. C.D.s, sheet music, music programs). The ITG hosts many competitions and conferences for trumpet players of all levels and interests. There are also conferences for educators. The Carmine Caruso International Jazz Trumpet Solo Competition was held at the University of Arizona for 2007 and the 2007 ITG conference was held in UMASS, Amherst.
The 2010 ITG Conference took place in Sydney, Australia; it was the first in the Southern Hemisphere.[1]
