Andrew Rozsa is currently bass trombonist with the Dubuque Symphony Orchestra, as well as a freelance performer, composer, and educator in the Chicago area.

Originally from rural Ohio, Rozsa earned a Master of Music degree from the Cleveland Institute of Music (bass trombone performance) and a Bachelor of Music degree from Baldwin-Wallace College Conservatory of Music (music theory and composition.) He also received a Performers' Certificate from DePaul University.

His major teachers on trombone include Doug Bennett, Allen Kofsky, Thomas Klaber, Charles Vernon, Mark Fisher, and Floyd Cooley. He studied theory and composition with Daniel Adams, James Feldman, and Loris Chobanian.

As a performer, Rozsa has performed with the American Wind Symphony, Wheeling (West Virginia) Symphony, the Ohio Light Opera, the Elmhurst (Illinois) Symphony, and the Cedar Rapids (Iowa) Symphony. He also was the Second Prize Winner in the Tuesday Musical Club Solo Competition, a finalist in the 2005 Eastern Trombone Workshop Solo Competition, honorable mention in the 2005 Donald Yaxley Solo Competition, and an alternate finalist in the 2004 Lewis Van Haney Mock Audition Competition.

An active composer, his works have been performed around the United States. In 2005, he was Composer-in-Residence for the Albuquerque, New Mexico public schools' combined string orchestra program; in November of that year, they premiered his Fantasia on a Theme of Amy Beach. His music has also been performed by the Cleveland Chamber Symphony.

Andy Rozsa proudly performs on a Greenhoe Bach 50 bass trombone (built in 2004) and a New York Bach 50 (built around 1933).

Last but certainly not least, Andy lives in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago, IL with his wife, Anne-Marie, a fine musician in her own right.
