Wilson Shook (seattle) alto saxophone gallery1412.org/wilsonshook.html nohaymasburro ((AT)) yahoo.com.ar Wilson Shook is an improvising saxophonist living in Seattle, Washington. Wilson’s music emphasizes focus, texture, chance and exploration. It is ‘new music’ in that it explores each new moment and seeks to develop a critical awareness of the present. Sonically, Wilson's music is informed by lower case and minimalist aesthetics, while embracing the full range of his instrument. He is especially interested in incidental or 'between' sounds: material that exists on the edges and in the cracks of the conventional sonic palate. Politically, Wilson's work attempts a practical approach to feminist, libertarian and surrealist conceptions of freedom on a situational scale.
