Trumpet, 2006-2007

Aaron was a trumpet player with the AYWS for 2 seasons, from 2006 to 2007. After AYWS, he attended the Armed Forces school of music where he graduated in 2007, and is currently attending Thomas Edison State University obtaining a B.A. He’s also a member of the United States Army Band as a Senior Musician, where he has received numerous Accommodations and Achievement awards.

Aaron has many fond memories with the AYWS, including his time at Midwest, where he had the pleasure of meeting Chris Martin, the Principal of the New York Philharmonic, as well as performing with the President’s Own trumpet soloist, who later became a colleague. He credits the AYWS for pushing his ability to the next level, while also fostering lifelong friendships that he holds to this day. He believes that music is a universal language and he continues to speak it every day in his career.
