Born and raised in Philadelphia, Meister began on electric bass, later honing his skills on the double bass (and piano) in college. A member of the first full class to matriculate in Peabodys jazz studies department, Meister attracted attention as a student, receiving both the Alice and Leary Taylor and Richard Franko Goldman awards in performance, as well as multiple career development grants. He went on to earn a masters degree in orchestral studies at Catholic Universitys Benjamin T. Rome School of Music, under a full-tuition scholarship. Before joining the


conservatory faculty, Meister served as a faculty member and co-coordinator in the preparatory division at Peabody, helping to develop a more comprehensive and cohesive jazz studies program. Known for his uncanny facility and distinct approach to improvisation, Meister is quickly garnering recognition among musicians and critics alike. As well as on Septagon, Meister can be heard as a sideman on several other releases, most recently including Andrea Woods Dhyana and Todd Simons Simon Says.
