About

---

Wesley Nielsen is a trombonist, teacher, music arranger, and content creator from Boise, Idaho. He received his Bachelor's degree in Music Performance from Boise State University and is currently working towards a Master's degree from the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. While studying trombone, Wesley also maintains a small studio of his own students and finds teaching to be a very insightful and rewarding experience.

Though his studies are founded in classical music, Wesley likes to explore the versatility of the trombone in nearly all genres of music. One of the ways that this is achieved is through his music arranging and content creation. Wesley began making YouTube videos as a hobby in January of 2020. Most of the videos Wesley makes feature his own arrangements. Some of these arrangements are published through Hal Leonard's ArrangeMe program and can be purchased via SheetMusicPlus.com

For audio and video editing, Wesley uses Ableton Live 11 Suite and DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.
