Ben Loomer, Assistant Conductor

Ben Loomer

Ben Loomer was a musician from a very young age! Singing and acting at church gave way to starting trumpet at age 8. Trumpet performance became his passion and he decided he would make music his profession. After spending a summer working at Cazadero Music Camp, he realized how fun and rewarding teaching music was and decided to study music education. Loomer earned an Associates of Arts degree in music from Los Medanos College and a Bachelor’s degree in music education from University of the Pacific.

Loomer has taught music in the San Ramon Unified School District since 2007 at all age levels, from elementary to high school. He currently teaches Music and Drama at Stone Valley Middle School in Alamo, CA. Loomer has also had several seasons as the director of the Northgate High School Marching Bronco Band as well as the Director of the Walnut Creek Presbyterian Church Bell Choir. Loomer has been a member of the Contra Costa Wind Symphony’s trumpet section since 2008, was featured as a soloist with the Wind Symphony in November, 2009, and is a familiar figure on the podium in his role as the Wind Symphony’s assistant conductor.

Loomer currently resides in Livermore with his beautiful wife, Meridee, and three cats. As of the beginning of November, 2018, the Loomers welcomed their first child into the world: baby William!
