Bill's debut solo album “Off Script” has labeled him a new driving force in the avant-garde and experimental music scene. “Muter is the most innovative tuba player we have seen. He has the potential to do for the tuba what Louis Armstrong did to the trumpet” - New Times. Bill is also involved in the pageantry arts.
