About Me

So this page is now my 'personal page'. If you want to check out my music go to: www.myspace.com/joncrowleymusic.SO, I'm 25 from the suburbs of Philly. I graduated from Muhlenberg College in '05 and just recently graduated from NYU(spring '07) with a Masters in Jazz Performance and Composition. I have been playing trumpet since I was 6 and got serious about jazz and music while in High School. I have been playing E.V.I.(an electronic trumpet synth) since early '05 and have recently started playing Flugelhorn as well. Bascially my life revolves around practice, playing and writing music. Besides Music, I enjoy hangin' with friends, reading, excercise and anything that allows me to be creative. I try to see the best in any situation. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
