Jay Lichtmann has been the a member of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra since the fall of 1982. He served the first 25 years of his tenure with the HSO in the Principal trumpet chair but, in the time honored orchestral tradition of planned obsolescence, he has stepped back to the 2nd/Assistant Principal spot.
As an adjunct professor at the University of Hartford’s Hartt School, Jay expends a tremendous amount of energy trying to get his students (or anyone else, for that matter) to listen to him.
