Henry Koban Payne, Student at our Wynnefield Branch and Trombonist in our Helen K. Schwartz Advanced Study Jazz Ensemble, was recently featured in WRTI’s Young Artist Spotlight!

The feature includes a fantastic Q&A about Henry’s music career and creative processes, as well as a video where Henry gives an informative and educational introduction to the Trombone.

“I would tell my 9-year-old self not to worry about where I am going in my musical development, and that a love for the music is enough… I feel that acting only out of how much one loves music takes you further than anything else.”
