Stanford Wind Symphony

The Stanford Wind Symphony, conducted by Giancarlo Aquilanti, in collaboration with the Stanford Cello Choir under Music Director Christopher Costanza, presents its 2026 Spring Concert from the main stage of Bing Concert Hall with special guest Aldo Caterina.

Aldo Caterina, trombone soloist and researcher, is a full-time trombone professor at the Alfredo Casella Conservatory of Music in L'Aquila, Italy. DaVinci Publishing artist in Osaka, Japan.

Caterina's approach to performing Romantic concerts is excellent in both concept and execution. His tone throughout the recording is clear and compact, though brighter than what most performers think of as a bass trombone timbre. (Online Trombone Journal OTJ, 2022)
