John Bryant graduated from WVU with a degree in Music Education. He has taught all ages from elementary students to advanced players, and is passionate about trombone, music theory, and developing strong musicianship. As a freelance trombonist, John keeps symphonic, jazz, and commercial styles in his back pocket, with years of experience playing on land and on cruise ships. Away from the trombone, he plays the double bass in ensembles local and abroad. He believes learning should be fun and success is always within reach.
