The 49th Annual
JAZZ BAND
FESTIVAL
APRIL 16, 2016
FEATURING TROMBONIST
BILL WATROUS
William Russell Watrous III (born June 8, 1939 in
Middletown, Connecticut) is a jazz trombonist.
He is perhaps best known by casual fans of jazz
music for his rendition of Sammy Nestico's
arrangement of the Johnny Mandel ballad "A
Time for Love," which he recorded on a 1993
album of the same name. A self-described "boporiented" player, he is well known among fellow
trombonists as a master technician and for his
mellifluous sound.
Watrous' father, also a trombonist, introduced him
to the instrument at an early age. While serving in
the U.S. Navy, Watrous studied with jazz pianist
and composer Herbie Nichols. His first
professional performances were in Billy
Butterfield's band. Watrous' career blossomed in
the 1960s. He played and recorded with many
jazz luminaries, including Maynard Ferguson,
Woody Herman, Quincy Jones, Johnny Richards,
and fellow trombonist Kai Winding. He also
played in the house band on the Merv Griffin
Show from 1965 - 1968.
In 1971, he played with the jazz fusion group Ten Wheel Drive. Also in the 1970s, Watrous formed his own band, "The Manhattan
Wildlife Refuge Big Band," which recorded two albums for Columbia Records. The band was later renamed "Refuge West" when
Watrous relocated to southern California.
He has continued to work actively since the 1980s as a band leader, studio musician, and performer at various jazz clubs. In 1983,
Watrous collaborated with Alan Raph to publish Trombonisms, an instructional manual covering various performance techniques for the
trombone. He has recorded as a solo artist, band leader and in various small ensembles on a number of different labels. These recordings
include a Japanese Import album in 2001, containing material recorded in 1984, with Carl Fontana, whom Watrous has cited as his
favorite trombonist. He also travels to San Diego periodically to play with his good friend and former student, Dave Scott, a noted jazz
musician himself and KUSI-TV broadcast host.
Watrous has resided in the Los Angeles, California area since the late 1970s with his wife Mary Ann. He is on the music faculty at the
University of Southern California Thornton School of Music.
