About
I play several instruments, with a focus on the Bass Trombone. During my time in Des Moines, I have performed with a number of ensembles, including the Des Moines Big Band, Des Moines Community Orchestra, CJC Big Band, the Windsor Brass, and the Metro Brass Quintet. I started the Metro Brass Quintet in April 2014 and have performed around the Des Moines metro at a variety of events. I perform intermittently as a busker in downtown Des Moines on my diatonic accordion. Learn more at my Accordion page. I teach private lessons in the area and manage the websites for the CJC Big Band and the Des Moines Community Orchestra.
I support the Des Moines Community Orchestra and CJC Big Band by managing their websites. I designed both current sites and enjoy the opportunity to support these fine groups.
I completed my Master’s degree in Trombone Performance at the University of Minnesota in May 2013. John graduated from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln where he earned a BA in Music Performance and a BS in Environmental Studies.
