Profile

A native of Bethlehem, Pa., Jarred Antonacci began his professional career in southeastern Pennsylvania in 2005. By the time he had earned his Bachelor of Music degree from the University of the Arts in 2009, he had already become an in-demand trombonist on the Philadelphia music scene. He subsequently acquired his Master of Music degree in classical trombone performance from Temple University in 2011. He holds faculty positions at UArts, Camden County College and Immaculata University. The ability to seamlessly crossover between the classical and jazz idioms has enabled Jarred to perform and record with a wide array of ensembles and notable performers, including the Curtis Opera Orchestra, AVA Opera Orchestra, Reading Symphony, Lancaster Symphony, Wilmington Ballet Company, Larry McKenna, Aretha Franklin, Percy Sledge, R. Kelly and more.
