Wesley
Arai began studying carillon
with Jeff Davis in 2004 at the
University of California, Berkeley,
where he received B.A. degrees in
Mathematics and Statistics with a
minor in Music. Originally from Los
Angeles, Wesley returned to his
hometown to pursue graduate studies
at the University of California, Los
Angeles, earning an M.A. degree in
Mathematics. During his time in
Southern California, he played the
carillon at the University of
California, Santa Barbara regularly.
Wesley passed the

2008. In addition to the carillon,
he has studied piano, trombone, and
voice, and has performed in a number
of different concert bands, marching
bands, jazz bands, orchestras, and
choral groups. He enjoys arranging
music, and occasionally performs
some of his own arrangements on the
carillon. Wesley currently works as
an actuary for an insurance company
in the San Francisco Bay Area and
serves as Associate Carillonist at
the University of California,
Berkeley. |
