Jason Jackson teaches Jazz Trombone at The Juilliard School and has been one of New York City's most respected trombonists for 35 years. A 20-year member of the Grammy Award-winning Vanguard Jazz Orchestra at the Village Vanguard, he has also served as lead trombonist of the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band for over two decades. Earlier in his career he toured the world with Ray Charles, and he currently plays lead trombone in the 26-piece orchestra of Ragtime at Lincoln Center—one of 13 Broadway productions in which he has held a chair, including The Color Purple. He performs regularly with his wife, vocalist Rosena Hill Jackson.
His most recent recording, Inspiration, features Jackson leading a full orchestra of strings, horns, and rhythm, with a memorable appearance by the late, great Roy Hargrove.
