Sneider reveals the spiritual affinities between music like Björk's "Cocoon," from Iceland, and Ibrahim's "The Wedding," from South Africa. His plangent trumpet sound integrates 12 dissimilar songs within its glow and quiets and rounds everything into poignance, even the hard corners of Monk's "Jackie-ing."- Thomas Conrad Jazz Times describing John's playing on Larry Golding's CD, Quartet John Sneider has gained national recognition as an innovative jazz trumpet player and composer.
