B2P 004 - Boston Symphony Trombones presented by Hip-BoneMusic

I had the distinct pleasure of being the guest artist at this year’s Brass Bash at the New England Conservatory in February. In addition to working and performing with the very talented students of NEC, I was extremely privileged to perform one of my pieces with the BSO trombone section, as well as performing my Trombone Institute of Technology with Jim Markey. Days later, I’m still jazzed from the opportunity to play with these great artists. Toby, Steve and Jim are off and running as they begin to form a dynasty section in Boston. The next time you’re in their fair city, treat yourself to a BSO concert and hear some of the finest low brass playing anywhere on the planet.

About the artist:

The Boston Symphony Orchestra trombone section is comprised of Toby Oft, Steve Lange and Jim Markey. Within the span of 5 years, these 3 virtuosi replaced the legendary section of Ron Barron, Norm Bolter and Doug Yeo and have already begun to establish their own elite status. All three are supremely talented instrumentalists, soloists, clinicians and educators. Active worldwide as solo artists and chamber musicians, they all hold positions at the famed New England Conservatory of Music.
