About Kevin

Hailed by the New York Music Daily as a "carefree" and "soulful" player, Kevin A. Virgilio is a Boston-based trombonist and educator whose performances run the gamut of contemporary and classical styles.

An active freelance musician, Dr. Virgilio recently appeared with the Rhode Island Philharmonic, the Boston Civic Symphony, the New York Festival Orchestra, the Pittsburgh Concert Chorale, the Bergen Symphony Orchestra, and the Westchester Oratorio Society. Dr. Virgilio appears regularly in local musical theater productions, including West-Side Story, In the Heights, A Christmas Carol, An American in Paris, Disney's Frozen, and the Music Man. He is currently on faculty at Groton Hill Music Center, Needham Music in Needham, Massachusetts, and Brookline Public Schools, and has held faculty positions at the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, Luzerne Music Center in Lake Luzerne, New York, and with the Handel and Haydn Society.

Included among his many engagements in the 2024/2025 season is the East Coast premier of Tōru Takemitsu's delicate and lyrical Fantasma/Cantos II for trombone and orchestra with the Boston University Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Sarah Ioannides, and a presentation of his research on environmental factors leading to the Danish contribution to the 20th-century solo trombone catalog at the Scandinavian Cultural Center in Newton, MA.

Kevin lives in Jamaica Plain with his wife Jenna and their grey tabby cat, Daisy. He loves to run and he trains for road races with his running club for wind instrumentalists, Run With the Winds.

About the lesson

The simplest explanation is often the best. I've been approached by students of all ages who were introduced to musical concepts in a way that was possibly too complicated or perhaps skipped some steps, and I've helped them gain an in-depth understanding of the subject through a clear, deliberate, and patient process.

My understanding of my subjects is extensive and comprehensive. While most of my students only really seek guidance as they navigate a course, an exam, or a school year, a minority of my students have continued to study with me for many of the years they devote to their personal and musical growth, and I'm happy to make short-term and long-term arrangements with my students.
