Miles Davis, a trumpeter who came into prominence in the 1940s, loved to play brilliant fast-moving flourishes in the very highest register of the horn, and that is one way we can identify his style.

This statement is FALSE.

Explanation:

Miles Daves was in fact a trumpeter, but it was not a characteristic of his playing the fast-moving flourishes in the very highest register of the horn.

He used to alter his trompet sound by using a harmon mute. And his music was well known because of it's innovation.
