BIO

Cuong Vu is widely recognized by jazz critics as one of the leading innovative musicians of his generation. A truly unique musical voice, Cuong has lent his trumpet playing talents to a wide range of artists including Pat Metheny, Laurie Anderson, David Bowie, Dave Douglas, Myra Melford, Cibo Matto, and Mitchell Froom.

Since moving to New York in 1994, Cuong has been active in leading various groups (most notably his CVTrio with Stomu Takeishi - bass and Ted Poor - drums), touring extensively throughout the world, and presenting clinics and masterclasses throughout the US and Europe. He has released five recordings - Bound (OmniTone), Pure (Knitting Factory Records), Come Play With Me (Knitting Factory Records), It's Mostly Residual (ArtistShare) and Vu-Tet (ArtistShare) - each having made critics choice lists for best recordings of their respective years.

Cuong has recently joined the faculty of the University of Washington’s School of Music as an assistant professor of jazz studies and is a "Yamaha Performing Artist". Cuong plays the Yamaha Custom YTR8310Z trumpet.
