He is a legendary tuba artist and pedagogue as well as a trailblazer in a variety of genres, including work as a solo recitalist, chamber musician, jazz musician, and in instrument design.

A true legion of former students holds prestigious positions in major performing ensembles and music schools around the world. Their success is the best testimony to his abilities as a teacher, mentor, and friend.

He is a founding member of the Summit Brass, Symphonia, St. Louis Brass Quintet, and Matteson-Phillips Tubajazz Consort, and has released numerous solo albums and chamber music CDs.

He has designed numerous tubas and mouthpieces along with Robert Tucci for the B&S division of Buffet Crampon. He is a Buffet Crampon B&S Artist.
