Jonas is the ultimate eclectic low brass guy, a highly creative musician, super friendly collaborator and, besides his trombones, brings the tuba to Musiversal for the very first time!

With over 20 years professional experience, Jonas Hocherman is a trombonist, tubist, composer and arranger. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in trombone from UniRio and has played and recorded with renowned artists such as Egberto Gismonti, Hermeto Pascoal, Bibi Ferreira, Arthur Verocai, Valéria Lobão, Liliana Herrero, Thiago Amud, Sebastião Tapajós, Luiza Brina, Vovô Bebê, and many others. In 2013, he won the Funarte Award for Brazilian Music, recording his first album, "Conversa entre Irmãos". In 2017, he completed an artistic residency at Terra Una through Ibermusica. In 2018, he was hired to work for Globo, performing in the band of Lazaro Ramos' program "Os Melhores Anos de Nossas Vidas." In 2023, his piece "Bata para meu pai" won the Enrique Crespo Composition Contest at the Uruguayan brass festival URUBRASS. He has composed soundtracks for children's plays such as "Ombela a Origem das Chuvas," where he won in the categories of Best Musical Direction and Best Original Music at the CBTIJ Children's Theater Awards in 2020. He also composed for the play "Lupita," which was nominated in the Best Soundtrack category at the Cenym Theater Awards in 2020.

Jonas specializes in Classical, Jazz, World Music and, of course, Latin-American genres, but is of immense versatility and of a highly diverse taste. He offers tenor and bass trombones along with tuba and preferes to work from audio guides and charts or scores.

Jonas was a pleasure to work with! I can't emphasize enough how much I appreciate the dedication he put into my project! Great communication, he delivered exceptional trombone parts and I appreciate his attention to detail. Jonas went above and beyond to ask exactly what my needs were, instead of just simply recording the parts (which he certainly could have done)! I will be sure to reach out soon for future projects, thank you!
