Charlie Porter
JazzA musical omnivore, New York trumpeter and composer Charlie Porter's music runs the gamut from down-home and gritty to other-worldly and sophisticated with its myriad influences, including jazz, classical, pop, and global music. A huge film buff, Charlie's original music is often cinematic in nature, evoking a wide-range of extra-musical narratives. He was recently hailed as "one of the most brilliant and imaginative contemporary composers of mainstream jazz" by Chicago Jazz Magazine.
