Biography by Scott Yanow
Nat Adderley's cornet (which in its early days was strongly influenced by Miles Davis) was always a complementary voice to his brother Cannonball in their popular quintet. His career ran parallel to his older brother for quite some time. Nat took up trumpet in 1946, switched to cornet in 1950, and spent time in the military, playing in an Army band during 1951-1953. After a period with Lionel Hampton (1954-1955), Nat made his recording debut in 1955, joined Cannonball's unsuccessful quintet of 1956-1957, and then spent periods with the groups of J.J. Johnson and Woody Herman before hooking up with Cannonball again in October 1959. This time the group became a major success and Nat remained in the quintet until Cannonball's death in 1975, contributing such originals as "Work Song," "Jive Samba," and "The Old Country" along with many exciting hard bop solos. Nat Adderley, who was at the peak of his powers in the early to mid-'60s and became adept at playing solos that dipped into the subtone register of his horn, led his own quintets after Cannonball's death; his most notable sidemen were altoists Sonny Fortune (in the early '80s) and Vincent Herring. Although his own playing declined somewhat -- Adderley's chops no longer had the endurance of his earlier days -- Nat continued recording worthwhile sessions in the years prior to his death on January 2, 2000. Many but not all of his recordings through the years are currently available (for such labels as Savoy, EmArcy, Riverside, Jazzland, Atlantic, Milestone, A&M, Capitol, Prestige, SteepleChase, Galaxy, Theresa, In & Out, Landmark, Evidence, Enja, Timeless, Jazz Challenge, and Chiaroscuro).

Biografía de Scott Yanow
La corneta de Nat Adderley (que en sus inicios estuvo fuertemente influenciado por Miles Davis) fue siempre una voz complementaria a la de su hermano Cannonball en su popular quinteto. Su carrera fue paralela a la de su hermano mayor durante bastante tiempo. Nat empezó a tocar la trompeta en 1946, cambió a la corneta en 1950 y pasó un tiempo en el ejército, tocando en una banda del ejército durante 1951-1953. Tras un periodo con Lionel Hampton (1954-1955), Nat hizo su debut discográfico en 1955, se unió al fracasado quinteto de Cannonball de 1956-1957, y luego pasó periodos con los grupos de J.J. Johnson y Woody Herman antes de volver a unirse a Cannonball en octubre de 1959. Esta vez el grupo se convirtió en un gran éxito y Nat permaneció en el quinteto hasta la muerte de Cannonball en 1975, contribuyendo con originales como "Work Song", "Jive Samba" y "The Old Country" junto con muchos emocionantes solos de hard bop. Nat Adderley, que estaba en la cima de sus facultades a principios y mediados de los 60 y se convirtió en un experto en solos que se sumergían en el registro de subtonos de su trompa, dirigió sus propios quintetos tras la muerte de Cannonball; sus acompañantes más notables fueron los contraltos Sonny Fortune (a principios de los 80) y Vincent Herring. Aunque su forma de tocar decayó un poco (las habilidades de Adderley ya no tenían la resistencia de sus primeros días), Nat siguió grabando sesiones que merecían la pena en los años anteriores a su muerte, el 2 de enero de 2000. Muchas de sus grabaciones, aunque no todas, están disponibles actualmente (para sellos como Savoy, EmArcy, Riverside, Jazzland, Atlantic, Milestone, A&M, Capitol, Prestige, SteepleChase, Galaxy, Theresa, In & Out, Landmark, Evidence, Enja, Timeless, Jazz Challenge y Chiaroscuro).
