His musical interests range from free improvisation to contemporary classical and experimental rock, and his music seeks to bridge the gap between the different stylistic influences he has absorbed. Chris is currently completing his Ph.D. in Music at the University of California, San Diego, where he is studying percussion with Steve Schick and improvisation with Anthony Davis and David Borgo. His previous teachers include Roscoe Mitchell, Fred Frith, and percussionist William Winant. As a performer, he has worked in a wide variety of settings, including premiering works for composers Christian Wolff, Julia Wolfe, and Peter Garland, performing with the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players and the Eclipse String Quartet, and playing in improvising ensembles with Fred Frith, Mat Maneri, and Karl Berger. His current projects include a duo with multi-reedist Drew Ceccato, a trio with cellist Judith Hamann and clarinetist Sam Dunscombe, and a long-standing collaboration with pianist and composer Lona Kozik.
