About Nate Wooley

Results for pages tagged "nate wooley"...

Musician

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

Sylvie Courvoisier: Amalthea

by Jack Kenny
November 1, 2026

This quartet shares its instrumentation with the Modern Jazz Quartet: piano, vibraphone, double bass and drums. Yet listening closely to the two groups reveals how far jazz has travelled between 1950 and now. Like John Lewis, Sylvie Courvoisier has an allegiance to European art music; where the MJQ cultivated poised, contrapuntal elegance, Amalthea favours abrupt changes ...
