Aric Kline

Los Angeles based trumpet player Aric Kline leads an active career as a chamber musician, orchestral trumpet player, jazz musician, and advocate of new music.

Aric can be heard as Principal Trumpet of the San Gabriel Valley Symphony, Principal Trumpet of the Channel Islands Chamber Orchestra, Split Lead Trumpet in contemporary big band Sicnarf, as well as numerous indie film scores, such as the short film M.I.R, written and directed by Liam Sherman. As a soloist he has commissioned several works for trumpet. Aric is looking forward to recording his first solo album, entitled No Genre Needed.

Past his role as a performer, Aric has taken on the responsibility of being an educator. Through his studio of ten private students, as well as the positions he holds with The Orchestra Place, and with Aimee Art Productions, Aric has become a passionate educator that looks to foster a sense of wonder and joy for all of the students he has the

privilege of working with.

When he isn’t playing or teaching the trumpet, Aric can be found testing out new recipes, watching movies, going to concerts, exploring Los Angeles and playing card

games with his friends, namely the other members of Good Time Brass.

To hear a few of Aric’s recent projects, check out the newly released Sicnarf Ep A Clever Bit, and keep your ears ready for Good Time Brass’ upcoming recording of A

Cosmic Perspective.

“My goal is to make the trumpet as fun and easy as possible. Thankfully, every student is different! This gives me the opportunity to draw upon the wide array of experiences I've had to meet my students where they're at on their musical journey.”- Aric Kline
