One of the youngest of the so-called Young Lions, Ryan Kisor first gained attention when he won the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz's first trumpet competition in 1990 at age 17. He had earlier studied trumpet with his father, played with a local band when he was ten, and started studying classical music two years later. Kisor discovered jazz at 14 and developed quickly, playing both jazz and classical music locally. In the summer of 1988, he was inspired at a jazz camp by Clark Terry. After winning the Monk contest, he was signed by Columbia, coming out with a couple of interesting if slightly premature CDs as a leader. Since that time, Ryan Kisor (whose originality has developed gradually) has freelanced around New York, most notably with the Mingus Big Band and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.

Ryan Kisor, uno de los más jóvenes de los llamados Young Lions, llamó la atención por primera vez cuando ganó el primer concurso de trompeta del Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz en 1990, a los 17 años. Antes había estudiado trompeta con su padre, tocado con una banda local a los diez años y empezado a estudiar música clásica dos años más tarde. Kisor descubrió el jazz a los 14 años y se desarrolló rápidamente, tocando tanto jazz como música clásica a nivel local. En el verano de 1988, Clark Terry le inspiró en un campamento de jazz. Tras ganar el concurso Monk, fue fichado por Columbia, con la que sacó un par de interesantes aunque algo prematuros CD como líder. Desde entonces, Ryan Kisor (cuya originalidad se ha ido desarrollando poco a poco) ha trabajado como freelance por Nueva York, sobre todo con la Mingus Big Band y la Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.
