So When She Was Only 11 Years Old The Talented Huntsville AL Native Began To Study Trumpet With A Heart Full Of Dreams. She Furthered Her Musical Education By Attending The Interlochen Arts Academy And Then Went On To Receive A Bachelor's Degree In Music From The Curtis Institute Of Music. During Her Remarkable Classical Career Bibi Black Has Completed A Few Solo Recordings Won The Philadelphia Orchestra's Young Artists Competition And The Grahm-Stahl Competition. Before Reaching Her 24th Birthday Black Had Landed A Spot As Second Trumpet In The Philadelphia Orchestra. She Was The First Female To Ever Hold That Position.
