Can we brag on another one of our composers for a minute? When he’s not premiering new pieces with the NEJC Jazz Orchestra or touring with Jason Moran, composer, clarinetist and bandleader Darryl Harper is releasing genre-busting chamber music records.
Listen to his latest offering, Chamber Made, which “shines as a symbol of rebellion against confining narratives” (DownBeat Magazine), through the link in our bio.
