Ted Poor graduated from the Eastman School of Music in 2003 where he earned his BM in Jazz Performance and taught on the faculty of the Community Education Division. While at Eastman, Ted studied drum set Rich Thompson and percussion with John Beck. Now a resident of New York City, Ted performs and records a variety of music with many different ensembles. For the past 2 years he has worked with guitarist Ben Monder's Quartet and played on Monder's most recent CD to be released later in 2005 (featuring Kermit Driscoll, Skuli Sverrison and Theo Bleckman). Ted is also a member of trumpeter Cuong Vu's trio (with bassist Stomu Takeishi), with whom Ted tours Europe and the US. Recently, the trio joined with guitarist Bill Frissell to make a record of Vu's music entitled 'It's mostly residual', which was released in the fall of 2005.
In March of 2004, Ted accompanied saxophonist Chris Potter to Frankfurt, Germany to perform and record Potter's music with the HR Big Band and returned as a guest soloist in July 2005 to perform and record the music of Ornette Coleman. Ted is also a member of the Jerome Sabbagh Quartet; which recently released an album entitled "North" for the Fresh Sounds label.
Ted is a member of groups based outside of NYC as well. He plays with the Rochester based trio Paradigm Shift and performed on their latest release "Shifting Times" (Nagel Heyer Records) featuring Joe Locke, Wycliffe Gordon and Marcus Printup. Ted also plays with the Respect Sextet, Jerseyband and Neos- three experimental groups that were formed at Eastman.
