Alex Norris: Jazz Musician in New York

About Alex Norris

Alex Norris is a jazz trumpeter heard regularly in New York City rooms, including Smalls Jazz Club. He leads the Alex Norris Quintet, a working ensemble that returns to the same material long enough to test it in public and refine it. His playing favors clean articulation and a direct, melodic line over display. Onstage, he operates as both soloist and organizer, shaping sets through tight cues, compact arrangements, and listening-driven interplay.
