Current Projects
Debut Solo Album
In 2022, I recorded the following works for the trombone that I commissioned. The album was released in August 2022 and is now available! Works include Alan Theisen’s Symphony No. 2 for Clarinet, Trombone, and Piano; Joe Buono’s Elegy, James David Secure.Contain.Protect - Sonata for Trombone and Piano, Charles Ingram's Sonatina, and Joshua Mize's Galaxy Unknown. Collaborators include Ellen Elder (piano) and Jacqueline McIlwain (clarinet). Many of these recordings will be world premiere recordings.
Seven19
The mission of Seven19 is to champion music - new and old - for trombone and guitar. Genres from pop/rock/metal to classical/modern, Seven19 endeavors to expand the musical horizon of this duo combination. Acoustic and electric guitar plus acoustic and electric trombone equal a new and exciting instrumental combination that up until now has been largely ignored if not avoided.
New Music for Trombone
I have an unquenchable thirst to champion new music for the trombone. As of May 2021, I have commissioned over 50 works for trombone. If you are a composer and would like to collaborate, please get in touch with me!
