Wayne Bergeron

Wayne Bergeron (born January 16, 1958) is an American trumpeter. Bergeron rose to prominence as a member of Maynard Ferguson's band in the 1980s. Since then, he has worked on over 500 TV and motion picture soundtracks. As a lead and studio player, he is notable both for his ability in the upper register of the instrument (as in his screaming trumpet work in the soundtrack for the 2004 Disney/Pixar animated movie The Incredibles) as well as his versatility (as in his cornet solo on the Final Jeopardy theme). Bergeron is on faculty at the Los Angeles College of Music and is principal trumpet for the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood.
