Tuba with John L.

Welcome! My name is John Lincourt and I spend most of my professional life playing trombone and leading an array of ensembles, ranging from solo performances to large scale wind ensembles and orchestras. I've been studying music and performing for 19 years. I received my Master's Degree in Instrumental Conducting from Mercer University and my Bachelor's in Trombone Performance from Catawba College. I am currently trombonist for Princess Cruises and have been offered contracts to play on ships that sail to Central and South America, Japan, British Columbia, Canada, Hawaii, Southeast Asia, and Alaska. I also compete in conducting workshops, one of which I was a winner. I am the type of teacher that prefers to expand the students creativity by approaching music from a variety of perspectives. My goal is to use music as a way of opening new doors and possibilities for my students, whether that be preparing for success at auditions or developing skills applicable in many facets of life. Thank you for reading! John Lincourt
