Robert Skoniczin is a native of southeastern Pennsylvania and has enjoyed a varied career as a trumpeter and teacher in the region and beyond. An active freelance musician and noted pedagogue in the region, he is well known to concertgoers.

Rob’s role in Tromba Mundi has been the go-to utility player that every organization dreams of having. At one time or another, he has subbed for, covered for, and perhaps even lied for every person in the ensemble. We are thrilled to have him as a regular member of the group for this tour!

Rob is principal trumpet with OperaDelaware and has performed with The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia, Delaware Symphony Orchestra, Bach Choir (and Festival Orchestra) of Bethlehem (PA), New Jersey Opera Theatre, Opera Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Ballet, Peter Nero and the Phillly Pops, Philadelphia Orchestra Community Outreach, Reading Symphony, Ocean City Pops, Wilmington String Ensemble, Gramercy Brass Orchestra, Sammy Kaye Orchestra and Brian Pastor Big Band.

In June 2012, Etienne was written into the US Congressional Record for his musical contributions to Trinidad & Tobago and the World.

Perhaps more than any other musician of his generation or Eastern Caribbean origin, Etienne brings a careful study of myriad rhythms from the French, Spanish, English and Dutch speaking Caribbean to the table. Crucially, as a soloist, he fully understands the New Orleans trumpet tradition (which is readily discernible in his trademark instrumental swagger) and what famed Crescent City Pianist, Jelly Roll Morton so succinctly captured in the now immortal phrase, ‘The Spanish Tinge’.

His latest recording, Creole Soul has received critical acclaim worldwide for it’s fusion of root grooves from the Afro-Caribbean. His previous release, Kaiso (Culture Shock Music 2011), features his arrangements and interpretations of the music of calypso legends Lord Kitchener, Mighty Sparrow & Roaring Lion.

He received his undergraduate degree from Temple University and his master’s degree from Manhattan School of Music.

In his spare time, when not arranging or composing music, Steve enjoys watching foreign films, frequenting modern art museums, and never-quite-finishing crossword puzzles.

THIRTEENTH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL TRUMPET FESTIVAL FEATURED ENSEMBLES The U.S. Army Blues, part of the United States Army Band “Pershing’s Own,” is the premier jazz ensemble of the United States Army. After informal beginnings in 1970, this 18-piece ensemble became an official element of the Army Band in 1972. Comprised of exceptional jazz musicians from across the nation, the Army Blues strive to fulfill their mission through public concerts, educational outreach, and the preservation of the tradition of America’s unique art form: jazz.

The Army Blues have performed at prestigious venues such as the Monterey Jazz Festival, the Montreux Jazz Festival, the famous Birdland jazz club in New York City, and the legendary jazz club Blues Alley club in Washington, DC. The band has shared the stage with jazz greats such as Dave Brubeck, Doc Severinsen, Stanley Turrentine, Slide Hampton, Dr. Billy Taylor, Kevin Mahogany, and Terell Stafford. The Army Blues give frequent performances at national conferences such as the Jazz Education Network annual conference, the International Trumpet Guild conference, the International Trombone Conference, and the Music Educators National Conference. The musicians of the Army Blues perform regularly at the White House, the Vice President’s Residence, the State Department, and for high-level military protocol and ceremonial events in the Washington Metropolitan Area.

The group plays a vital role in Army recruiting as part of the Twilight Tattoo performances seen by thousands of tourists each summer in Washington, DC, and surrounding areas. Members of the Army Blues have played for Habitat for Humanity volunteers in New Orleans during the cleanup efforts following Hurricane Katrina. In conjunction with the USO and the office of the Sergeant Major of the Army, individual members of the band have volunteered to travel to Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan during the holiday season to perform concerts for the troops stationed there.

Serving as musical ambassadors, the Army Blues have conducted numerous clinics at schools and colleges throughout the United States.

Members of the Army Blues engage in community educational outreach, working with young musicians in local schools. In collaboration with the Library of Congress, the Army Blues play seldom-performed yet historically significant music from the Library’s jazz archives.

To celebrate their thirty-fifth anniversary, the Army Blues recorded a double CD album entitled Blues at Thirty-Five in 2007. This album won two Washington Area Music Awards (“Wammies”) in the categories of Best Big Band Group and Best Big Band Recording.

Since that time, the ensemble has recorded Live at Blues Alley an educational initiative release called Blues Plus You and most recently, a collaborative effort with the Library of Congress titled Jazz from the Stacks.

Reanimations for two trumpets and wind ensemble, Joseph Turrin’s Concertino for 11 Instruments and Wind Ensemble, Adam Silverman’s Alternating Currents for Alto Saxophone and Wind Ensemble, Rob Maggio’s Glass Ceiling and the wind band settings of John Corigliano’s Cabrillo Lullaby and Richard Danielpour’s Toward the Splendid City.

The WCUWE has been recognized by its peers with regular invitations to perform at regional, national and international conferences. The group has recently performed at 2014 CBDNA Eastern Division Conference in Boston, Massachusetts and at the 2010 Eastern Division Conference hosted at West Chester University. The WCUWE has been invited to perform at the 2015 National Association for Music Educators Eastern Division Conference in Providence, RI and the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association Annual Conference twice in recent years (2009 and 2015). Additionally, the WCUWE has performed at the 2014 International Trumpet Guild Conference in Valley Forge, PA and the WCU Chamber Winds (which draws membership from the WCUWE) performed at the 2015 International Horn Society Conference in Los Angeles, CA. A strong dedication to the preservation and dissemination of wind music has developed into an annual recording project for the WCUWE that has resulted in the production of eight commercial recordings Shadowcatcher, Rites, Borrowed Inspirations, Reanimations, Like a Moth to a Flame, Hosannas, Toward the Splendid City, Blessings Flow and Ritmico. These recordings have been met with consistent critical praise. A recent Band World review of Like a Moth to a Flame notes: “Andrew Yozviak and the West Chester University Wind Ensemble have been producing some of the most professional programs for band music lovers and this latest addition is another treasure…a superb program from West Chester!”

More than a dozen World Premier Recordings have been featured in this series on Mark and Albany labels.

The group also regularly participates in commissioning consortiums that have resulted in the creation of significant works for wind band.

Among them, Steven Bryant’s Concerto for Wind Ensemble, Kevin Walczyk’s Scion Concerto for Clarinet and Wind Ensemble, James Syler’s Congo Square, Oliver Kaplan’s Krumholz Variations and Adam Silverman’s Carbon Paper and Nitrogen Ink, Zhou Long’s Concerto for Wind Ensemble, Andy Akiho’s Ondine’s Epiligue, Michael Ippolito’s Machine Becomes Music, James Barnes’ Symphony No. 9 and ongoing efforts that include works in progress by Dan Welcher, Adam Silverman and Jess Langston Turner.

The West Chester University Wind Ensemble features some fifty of the finest wind and percussion students from the Wells School of Music and is one of four symphonic wind bands sponsored by the university. The ensemble presents numerous programs on and off campus each year and regularly entertains guest artists. Recent collaborations include work with Donald Hunsberger, Frank Battisti, William Berz, Keith Brion, Jack Stamp, Jennifer Higdon, Joseph Turrin, Eric Ewazen, John Mackey, Eric Aubier, Tim McAllister, Phillip O’Banion, Alan Vizzutti and the Canadian Brass.

Maller Baroque Brass Instruments is dedicated to making authentic brass instruments. Founder David L. Maller, a protĂŠgĂŠ of the late, legendary instrument maker Ronald K. Collier, carefully hand-crafts each instrument using traditional techniques. This craftsmanship creates instruments that are easier to play and also produces a genuine, historic sound in comparison to their contemporary machine-produced baroque counterparts.

Maller Baroque Brass Instruments currently offers a natural trumpet designed by David Maller with the 17th century style bell flair, a copy of the trumpet by Johann Leonhard Ehe II (1720), and a full line of sackbuts. The Maller line also offers instruments from several periods. In addition to historic hand-made reproductions from several periods, the Maller line offers traditional cornets as well as modern trumpets & trombones that take advantage of combining old-world handcrafting methods with the most precise machine manufacturing techniques available today.
