Greg Kelley, a stunningly original trumpeter, graduated from the Peabody Conservatory of Music in 1995. He has since garnered much praise for his unique vocabulary of extended techniques and timbral manipulation. In 1998, Kelley began a pattern of dedicated touring, performing throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. These travels have led to numerous collaborations, including ones with Anthony Braxton, Paul Lovens, Keiji Haino, Eddie Prevost, Kevin Drumm and John Butcher.

Trumpet features Greg Kelley on 41+ minutes of extended solo trumpet improvisation.   Powerful music here that demands serious deep listening.  Not for the feint of ear!  Recorded in June 2000 in Sommervile, Massachusetts and mastered by veteran improvisationalist, Bhob Rainey.
