Born and raised in White Plains, New York, trumpeter Bill Owens joined the Presidio Brass in September of 2006. While attending the Juilliard School in New York, Bill was an active soloist giving three solo recitals in both Paul and Morse recital halls in Lincoln Center as well as solo performances in Alice Tully Hall. He has performed the Haydn Concerto with The Yonkers Philharmonic, and has performed both Arutunian’s Concerto and Jeff Curnow’s Concertpiece for Trumpet and Band with the Westchester Wind Symphony. As an orchestral musician, Bill has given performances at BargeMusic, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and with The American Chamber Orchestra, The New England Symphonic Ensemble and The North-Eastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic as well as all of the performing ensembles at The Juilliard School.
Besides performing great music, Bill also arranges and interprets great music for his instrument and the Presidio Brass within varying chamber settings. He believes that good music is good music regardless of the instrument that is was originally intended for. Bill can be heard on The American Brass Quintet’s newest CD, “In Gabriel’s Day.” |
