Bob McChesney was born in Baltimore, Maryland, and began playing the
trombone in the fourth grade as part of his public school music program.
He has since evolved into a world-renowned trombone soloist and an
authority on trombone pedagogy. Bob McChesney’s trademark as a
trombonist is the beauty of his sound, a lightening-fast technique, and
his emotional connection to the music. With complete mastery of the
instrument and extensive knowledge of jazz harmony, McChesney has
distinguished himself as one of the pre-eminent soloists in the world,
not only in the realm of jazz and improvisation, but as an interpreter
of the most difficult and highly technical Classical repertoire, as
well.
