A good really difficult bop trumpeter who, within the mid-’90s, became a far more adventurous improviser, Philip Harper became well-known during 1988-1993 simply because co-leader (with older brother Winard) from the Harper Brothers. He previously previously toured with Artwork Blakey’s Jazz Messengers (where his Lee Morgan-influenced design fit in properly) and documented with Cecil Brooks III, Joe Chambers, and Errol Parker. Following the Harper Brothers music group split up (having created four albums for Verve), the trumpeter documented as a innovator for Muse and used the Mingus Big Music group.
