Equally versatile in classical, jazz, and a broad range of other contemporary styles, Antonacci frequently performs with the Philly Pops Orchestra, Jazz Orchestra of Philadelphia, Philly Pops Big Band, and Norman David and The Eleventet among many others.

Among the notable artists and productions with whom he has performed are Percy Sledge, Aretha Franklin, Wayne Newton, The Four Tops, The Temptations, Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Baron, Pat Martino, Jimmy Heath and The Midtown Men (national tours with the original cast of the Broadway show Jersey Boys).

As a soloist and an advocate for new music, Antonacci has commissioned new works for trombone, including Concert Piece for trombone and piano (Lars Halle), Bomb Bomb for trombone and piano (David Bennett Thomas), Sliding Phases for unaccompanied trombone and Recitation/Exploration for trombone and piano (Norman David). Antonacci is a frequent clinician, guest artist and festival adjudicator in the greater Philadelphia region.
