Learn Flute with Dr. Justin Rollefson

Known for his beautiful, expressive tone and vibrato, Dr. Justin Rollefson showcases the diversity and flexibility of the saxophone through exploring unconventional chamber ensembles and actively commissioning new works for these ensembles. In 2014, he founded the Rogue Trio, an ensemble consisting of violin, saxophone, and piano. In 2016, Rollefson founded the multi-prize winning Eos saxophone sextet. In 2017, he co-founded Lotus, a saxophone trio. Finally, in 2018, he founded Zinnia, a trio consisting of saxophone, cello and piano. Rollefson has not only been active in chamber music, but has also appeared as a soloist with numerous orchestras and wind ensembles. Additionally, he has played clarinet and saxophone with the Phoenix Symphony Orchestra.


In addition to his work as a professional saxophonist and clarinetist, Dr. Rollefson is currently emerging as a triple Native American style Flute (NAsF) performer and specialist. Rollefson is currently commissioning NAsF flute makers to design unique triple configurations in which he is developing unprecedented playing techniques and pedagogy. In addition to his pursuits on the triple NAsF, he is also currently heading a consortium with predominant NAsF performers in creating a new design of the modern, single NAsF.


Dr. Rollefson completed his Doctor of Musical Arts degree in saxophone performance under the direction of Dr. Christopher Creviston at Arizona State University, where he also completed his Master of Music degree in saxophone performance in 2014. Dr. Rollefson’s past instructors and chamber coaches include Dr. Kenneth Tse, Joseph Lulloff, Dr. Andrew Campbell, Dr. Robert Spring, Dr. Joshua Gardner, the Shanghai String Quartet, and members of the Fifth House Ensemble.
