The Capitol Bones was forged in 1990 into a trombone band like no other. The Capitol Bones has performed concerts at schools, concert halls, and festivals for over 30 years. The current trombone section has been intact for well over ten years. We use the Stan Kenton model for The Capitol Bones, two bass trombones and three tenor trombones. The bass trombonists are the power and stability that the rest of the section locks onto and builds from. Jeff Cortazzo and Jerry Amoury are the bass trombonists, and the tenors are Jay Gibble, Jim McFalls, and Matt Niess.
