Taylor Ho Bynum

Bynum has built a career
navigating the intersections between structure and improvisation—through
musical composition, performance, production, interdisciplinary collaboration,
teaching, writing, advocacy, and more. His expressionistic playing on cornet
and his expansive vision as a composer have garnered him critical attention on
over twenty recordings as a bandleader and dozens more as a sideman. He
currently leads his Sextet, 7-tette, and 15-piece PlusTet, and works with many
collective ensembles. He is also a published author and contributor
to The New Yorker’s Culture Blog; has taught at universities,
festivals, and workshops worldwide; and has served as a panelist and consultant
for leading funders, arts organizations, and individual artists. His work has
received support from Creative Capital, Chamber Music America, New Music USA,
USArtists International, and the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, among
others. Read more at taylorhobynum.com.
