GARY ROBERTS, TRUMPET Gary Roberts played trumpet from age 12 through high school in New York state before going on to attend Hobart College, where he minored in music. (That's to say, he didn't quite major in music cuz one can't get a job in it, but spent all his time in the music building) Moved to Seattle in 1982 and promptly put his horn away for 18 years, spending time remodeling houses, leading adventure treks in the Indian Himalaya, and traveling extensively. Upon meeting Ellen Kaisse in 1989, and marrying her, he started playing trumpet again shortly thereafter. He presently studies with Steve Keene, and plays with Brass Band Northwest, Cascade Symphony and Black Diamond Brass. Often seen on street corners playing cornet and wearing goofy hats.
