Musician

Nate Wooley

Born:

Nate Wooley (b. 1974) grew up in a Finnish-American fishing village in Oregon. He has spent the rest of his life trying musically to find a way back to the peace and quiet of that time by whole-heartedly embracing the space between complete absorption in sound and relative absence of the same. He began playing trumpet professionally at age 13 with his father, and after studying he moved to Colorado where he studied more with Ron Miles, Art Lande, Fred Hess, and improvisation master Jack Wright. His tenure with Jack began to break Nate out of self-imposed molds and into the sound world that he has embraced as his own. Nate currently resides in Jersey City, NJ and performs solo trumpet improvisations as well as with his trio Blue Collar with Steve Swell and Tatsuya Nakatani

Read "Sam Gill, Federico Calcagno, Scofield/Holland & Perelman/Anderson" reviewed by Maurice Hogue

Mark Turner, Perelman/Wooley, O.N.E. & Herb Robertson

Read "Mark Turner, Perelman/Wooley, O.N.E. & Herb Robertson" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


Acclaimed saxophonist Mark Turner's new recording, Reflections on: The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man, will attract attention not only for the brilliant playing, but also for the very forthright topic of a bi-racial man able to “pass" as white. Turner used as his motivation the semi-fictional account written by James Weldon Johnson, a central figure of ...

Sylvie Courvoisier: Angel Falls

Read "Angel Falls" reviewed by Mike Jurkovic


The history of humankind resounds with the sound of piano/trumpet duets. But not like this one. Not like Angel Falls. Because the true beauty of Angel Falls is that grandmaster Wadada Leo Smith, aided and abetted by the fervent curiosity of Brooklyn- based/Switzerland native pianist Sylvie Courvoisier, enlists the listener as an active creator in truly ...
