Wesley Waldron

Wesley has spent many years learning, playing, and teaching classical violin. But he especially loves playing music from other traditions, such as gospel and jazz.

By working in many different venues, he has learned to express himself in any style. Wesley also plays bass for jazz and pop groups and occasionally doubles on acoustic guitar.
