ISB Convention

Thank You!

The 2025 ISB Convention at the Florida State University College of Music in Tallahassee has concluded. It was an amazing week of performances, lectures, masterclasses, exhibits and surprises led by Convention Chair Sandor Ostlund (Professor of Bass at Baylor University), and Site Chairs George Speed (Associate Professor of Bass at Florida State University), and bassist Rodney Jordan (Professor of Jazz Studies at FSU).

A million thanks to Dr. Todd Queen (Dean of the College of Music at Florida State University), William Fredrickson (Professor of Music Education and Associate Dean for Operations at FSU), Nick Smith (FSU Production Hall Manager), our collaborative musicians, and our hardworking back office team and volunteers. We couldn't have done it without you!
