Talent Pool - Jon Sass



Jon Sass

... was born under the name Jonathan McClain Sass in the Bronx, and grew up in Harlem, New York City. As a celebrated tubist, Jon is widely recognized today as one of the most creative virtuosos in the music industry.

He began studying his instrument at the age of 14. While admiring Howard Johnson's music and following him around and listening to his mother's records and following the bass lines of groups like "Earth, Wind and Fire" or James Brown, with his tuba, Jon studied privately with Sam Pilafian. Other teachers were Howard Johnson, Joe Daley, Warren Deck and Bob Stewart. Within four years later Jon graduated from New York's Music and Art High School, presently the La Guardia School for the Performing Arts.

To date he has made over 70 recordings. Currently working as a solo artist, Jon has crossed over from playing collaborations with artists and groups such as the Vienna Art Orchestra, Boston Symphony-Empire Brass, Art of Brass Vienna, Circum, Austrian Brass Connection, Ray Anderson, Peter Wolf, Ricky Ford, Erika Stucky, Sud Pool, Henry Threadgill, Michelle Rosewoman, David Murray, Sunny Murray, Butch Morris, Leon Thomas, Vince Mendoza, Peter Erskine, Linda Tillery and the Heritage Cultural Choir, Howard Johnson, Arkady Shilkloper, Gideon Kremer. Feature programs together with Bobby Shew, Ivan Neville, Hans Theessink, Millagros Pinera, Wolfgang Puschnig, Wolfram Berger, and many more. Jon has also performed solo and recorded with Several Wind Symphonies. Jon has also written arrangements for the James Brown Horns.

Jon’s music:

"I never considered myself a jazz or classical musician, but foremost an artist."

Living in Europe - in Vienna - for many years, only increased Jon's stylistic flexibility and his ability to feel at home with and crossover between classical music, Jazz and Avantgarde. With his early musical roots embedded in R&B, Soul, Groove, Funk and Blues, especially when it comes to his identification with singers and bass players of this type of music, Jon is best known for his distinctive, soulful sound - for example on the 3 "Heavy Tuba and Jon Sass"-recordings, to name just a few.






THE CORPORATE GROOVE - Creative Seminar with Jon Sass

Corporate teams are invited to participate in an exclusive and unforgettable seminar with one of the world's most innovative and versatile brass playing personalities - Tuba Soloist JON SASS.

This 2 day seminar welcomes up to 8 corporate members to participate in an experience that provides a unique perspective on creativity, bringing to light an effective understanding for successful teamwork related objectives.
