Connstellation Trombone

Not on view

Formed in 1967, the high-energy brass-rock band Chicago featured a horn section with a trombone, a trumpet, and a saxophone, among other instruments. The horn players added both musical intensity and lively choreography to the band’s live performances. Band member James Carter "Jimmy" Pankow played this trombone beginning in the 1970s.
