Good News Sunday: College kid dominates in Final Four, turns pro in tuba

Posted4/4/2021 5:30 AM This is Good News Sunday, a compilation of some of the more upbeat and inspiring stories published by the Daily Herald during the previous week: It s that time of year when the best of the student performers leave college early for the pros.   Vernon Hills Robert Black knows what that is like. I was thinking about dropping out to play my first season, says Black, a sophomore attending Rice University remotely from his apartment in Milwaukee while he does his professional job as the principal tubist with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra. At age 18, Black skipped Vernon Hills High School s senior award day to travel to Milwaukee to audition. Black distinguished himself among more than five dozen tuba players and made the cut for the Final Four. In the months before the final audition, that group grew to about 20. Even so, Black won the position in January 2020 to become one of the youngest tubists ever hired by a major orchestra.
