His style frequently incorporates extended techniques, multiphonics, and a virtuosic command of the instrument, often pushing the boundaries of traditional trumpet playing. He’s collaborated extensively with musicians across a broad spectrum of experimental music, including projects with Matthew Shipp, Joe McPhee, and Darius Jones.
