Bart Vroomen

Professor Historical Trombone

After his Bachelor studies at the Maastricht Academy of Music, Dutch-Limburg trombonist Bart Vroomen, urged on by teacher Harry Ries, decided to delve into the history of his instrument. This led him to the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln, where he followed and successfully completed his Master's degree in Historical Trombones under the guidance of Wim Becu. Bart always keeps his ears open for new musical influences and other genres. As a result, he enjoys playing in an 'Egerländer' wind ensemble or Big Band just as much as in a classical symphony orchestra or renaissance ensemble, and allows his music to be enriched by all influences. For some time now, Bart has been happy to put his acquired knowledge and experience to good use as a teacher, and in this capacity he regularly gives workshops and master classes in the field of trombone and chamber music; since September 2021, he has been teaching historical trombones at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel and giving masterclasses at the Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles.
