Catalyzing Musical Communities with Nathan Hudson

On today's episode of music/Maker with Tyler Kline, Tyler is joined by Nathan Hudson.

Nathan Hudson is a composer, educator, performer and curator living in Charlotte, NC. His music has been called “…simple, yet cinematic” and “Tonal-lyrical-primal-old/new-synthetic and partakes of a rhapsodical quality in new ways…”. 

His debut album, ‘music for falling and flying’, in collaboration with author Ben Loory is set to release this fall. Nathan is currently on the music faculty at Central Piedmont Community College, and is the managing director for the Next Generation Trumpet Competition. When he’s not composing, he enjoys thinking deeply about coffee, playing disc golf, and spending time with his wife and three cats.

In this conversation, Nathan discusses the thread from his childhood making music in church and how that expanded into the music he makes today; all the ways he cultivates community as both a composer and a trumpet player; and his close collaborations with the author Ben Loory.
