David Krosschell serves as an Affiliate Artist in Trombone at the University of Puget Sound, teaching trombone, brass techniques, and ear training, while also maintaining a faculty position at Seattle Pacific University. A prominent freelance trombonist in the Pacific Northwest since 2011, he performs with ensembles including the Seattle Symphony, Tacoma Symphony, Seattle Rock Orchestra, Rat City Brass, and collaborators like Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, establishing himself as a first-call musician and competition adjudicator.
His educational background comprises degrees from:
- Northwestern University
- University of North Texas
- Western Michigan University
Krosschell's research bridges historical performance practice and pedagogical innovation, focusing on George Roberts' transformative influence on modern bass trombone technique and systematic embouchure development for beginner low brass players. His work addresses critical gaps in brass pedagogy through empirical analysis of foundational techniques and historical lineage.
As an active brass pedagogue, he integrates performance experience with academic instruction, though no formal advisees or research grants are documented in available materials.
