I went back to my roots on this one - going solo and talking one on one with a trombone friend. Meet Dr. Anthony Williams as he speaks about some of his major influences as a musician. He shares some pedagogical views about trombone, being a musician, and takes us into what it might be like studying in his studio at the University of Northern Iowa. He is passionate about commissioning and playing new and different works with a fusion of styles for trombone. Williams can be seen playing in a big band, jazz combo or symphony orchestra throughout the calendar year.

This episode has been in the works for a little over 3 years now. My original intention was to meet the members of Brass Against and talk to the brass players about the band and all kinds of other topics. I followed up on the message about 2-3 months ago and I received a response. (I was one happy camper) They said, “Frank will do it!” So then I began researching Frank Cohen. After falling into that rabbit hole I discovered, Frank has done a lot! He’s a member of Brass Against and he currently is lead trombone/soloist with Arturo O’Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra, with Willie Colon, and is a member of the High and Mighty Brass Band. Mr. Cohen has great life experiences as a musician that we can all learn from, maybe some can relate to, but most of all we have found another trombone treasure!

Do you ever come across an artist or person not in your field and just think very highly of them? For me there are some athletes, motivational speakers, teachers, maybe a few actors, and for this particular episode is Hailey Brinnel. When I first listened to her albums, I was extremely impressed with her trombone playing, singing, and songwriting. I was instantly a fan. It is these types of interviews I get to do where I feel like a fan and am so gracious they give up some of their time to share their story and knowledge in music and trombone.

This episode was recorded live at ECU School of Music, Skills and Bones II, trombone event on March 25, 2023. Matthew J Neff and Bradley Palmer were our guest performing artists and clinicians. Chuck Capps was gracious enough to make the drive from Myrtle Beach to Greenville to join us for this panel.
These three trombonists have three distinct careers in music. Matthew Neff primarily a performing artist playing full-time, Dr. Palmer a professor of music, and Mr. Capps a very successfull band director. These three perspectives are good to hear as a student trying to figure it all out. Personally I loved listening to their stories and perspectives on the various topics presented. -
