Casey Black, Trumpet

Casey Black, Trumpet
Casey has been playing trumpet in the WSO for five seasons. Outside of his involvement in the sympony, he keeps very busy as the Music Director at Topsail High School where he conducts seven ensembles. He often arrives at Symphony rehearsal straight from a three hour outdoor marching band rehearsal. When asked about his busy schedule Casey says, "I very much appreciate the WSO brass section for always pretending that they don't notice that I reek of sunblock and the great outdoors."

He became a musician due to the influence of Leona Fulghum, the Music Minister at the church he attended while growing up in Concord, NC, who was a mastermind at convincing reluctant musicians to perform for Sunday services and went to fantastic lengths to provide performance opportunities. Casey comments, "Most everyone I know who went through the church at that time still holds music as a central part of their life, and I firmly believe that Ms. Fulghum is a large part of that."

Casey also performs with the Wilmington Big Band, and in the pit orchestra for various productions produced by the Thalian Association and Opera House Theatre Company. In addition to the trumpet, he plays piano and ukulele when no one is listening.

Hi! We are planning a wedding in Wilmington for 8/25/18 and was wondering if you ever play for wedding ceremonies. If you do, could you please send us an e-mail with your prices and any other instrumentalists you typically play with for such an event. Thanks in advance! Kate
