Throughout his career Remington has performed many different genres of music ranging from classical to contemporary.

These Pit Orchestra performances also included Flight with the Frost Opera Theatre.

Remington has also had the opportunity to do recording work. In February 2021 he was a part of an original musical studio recording of Winesburg, Ohio, written by Tyler Campbell, which was a National Finalist for the American Prize in Composition. This original musical was premiered at the Silver Moon Drive-In during the Covid-19 pandemic in an effort to keep music alive during a time that significantly affected the live music and arts community. Remington also had the extraordinary opportunity to be a trumpet player on his first album, The Hollywood Collection, as an inaugural member of the LAFCI Studio Intensive Orchestra under the direction of Angel Velez in the Clint Eastwood Scoring Stage at the Warner Bros. Recording Studio.

As a member of the Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra, Remington toured Italy in the summer of 2023 performing as Principal Trumpet for audiences from Milan to Rome. Throughout his 10 years of playing the trumpet his work with his teachers, including Charlie Bertini and Craig Morris, have afforded him the opportunity to perform alongside orchestras such as the Detroit Symphony, New World Symphony, and the Sarasota Orchestra. Remington has also received admission to several prestigious summer festivals and camps including Festival Napa Valley, Chosen Vale, and the Interlochen Summer Arts camp where he played as a member of the World Youth Symphony Orchestra. It is at these places that he has had the honor to work with professionals such as Chris Still, Mary Elizabeth Bowden, Ed Carroll, Ken Larson, and Rob Schaer.
