Meet Bryce Cone, Alto Sax

Bryce Cone - Alto Sax

Bryce Cone - Alto Sax

Hometown: I lived in Idaho, Ohio, England, and Germany before to my current residence in Osceola, IN

Education: Bachelors degree in Music Education from Ball state University.

Playing Experience: Played in Jazz Ensembles in High School & College. Played with Dr. Grant Manhart at the Elkhart Jazz Festival 1998 & 1999. Perform with the Grace College Wind Ensemble on occasions. Play various instruments for the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend Churches.

Career Highlights: Playing in the Elkhart Jazz Festival, especially when I was still in high school. Getting to meet and learn piano from Frank Mantooth.

Why I Play With TIJ: As a teacher, it’s nice to have an outlet and actually get to play my horn. I’m constantly teaching, and performing as a conductor, but otherwise don’t get much of a chance to play Jazz. Having a chance to play and show my students that I actually do know what I’m talking about is fun too. Plus, there aren’t very many big bands in this area, and I’m proud to be a member of one of the few.
