Default Brake roar

I had new pads and new rear rotors installed about 10 days ago. Car set until last Friday when I left to go B.G to the NCM. I started hearing a roaring noise when I pressed the brake pedal when Inwas going 50 mph or faster. Does not make this noise under 50 mph when breaking. Any info appreciated. Brake pads and rotors installed at Chevy dealer, I’am no mechanic.
thanks

I'm wondering out loud if the mechanic actually did a proper bedding of the pads to the rotors.
If it were my car, that is what I would do, and see if that cures the problem.
Good Luck
