"The International Trumpet Guild is a non-profit organization founded in 1974 to promote communications among trumpet players around the world and to improve the artistic level of performance, teaching, and literature associated with the trumpet.
ITG's more than 6,000 members represent 64 countries and include professional and amateur performers, teachers, students, manufacturers, publishers, and others interested in belonging to an organization dedicated to the trumpet profession. ITG is supported by the dues of individual members."
Four journals are sent out every year to all International Trumpet Guild 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 levels of amateur to professional. 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.
