Jazz trumpet player Greg Duncan started working in the music industry by touring all over North America on cruise ships and in Broadway musicals. In 2001 he earned his Masters Degree in Music from the well respected University of North Texas. The following year he was back on the road touring the United States and Japan with the Glenn Miller Orchestra, where he was a featured composer/arranger as well as featured soloist. His writing also appeared on the Washington State University Jazz Big Band recording of 2003.
Duncan currently resides in Chicago where he plays with his own jazz quintet in addition to many other bands. His quintet plays contemporary straight-ahead jazz featuring some of the best young talent in Chicago. They recorded their debut CD ("Unveiled") in 2006 on OA2 Records. Duncan has studied with John Swana, Joe Magnarelli, Al Hood, and Greg Yasinitsky.
