		Theo Wolters was born in 1955 as the last of eleven children in a musical family in Melick, a small town in the south of The Netherlands. At a very young age, Theo started to learn the trumpet in a local windband, led by his father. Soon was clear that young Theo had an enormous musical talent and so he was to study music at the Conservatory in Maastricht. There he started studying the trumpet under the reknown Wim Groot, former solo-trumpet of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Before finishing his Conservatory studies, Theo Wolters was already solo-trumpet of the Overrijsels Philharmonisch, Enschede (Netherlands) and later alternate solo-trumpet of the Essener Philharmoniker, Essen (Germany) between 1975 and 1979.
