Taylor Ho Bynum | Pioneer Live
Taylor Ho Bynum has spent his career navigating the intersections between structure and improvisation â through musical composition, performance, and interdisciplinary collaboration, and through production, organizing, teaching, writing, and advocacy. Bynumâs 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. Taylor Ho Bynum goes electric with a new quintet of old friends, featuring âbrassy noise over off-center groove, with a purple hue.â Taylor Ho Bynumâs Rank Sentimentalist includes Bynum (cornet), Marika Hughes (cello), Evan Patrick (electric guitar) Stomu Takeishi (bass guitar), and Chad Taylor (drums).
