Figgis is both a filmmaker and jazz musician who likes to speak about music the way he speaks about cinema: as a living, breathing exchange between artists and their audience. Figgis explains how the trumpet is “a voice that cuts through,” capable of intimacy one moment and bold declaration the next. A believer in collaboration Figgis knows that jazz musicians listen as much as they play, responding instinctively rather than following rigid structures.
