“Austin Ali understands the point of the bass trombone. This’ll be fun.”
–Satisfied bass trombone player
Hailing from Texas, Austin Ali is a composer, trumpeter, and arranger based in Los Angeles, California. An insatiably curious person, he strives to inspire wonder through his music. From complex-meter jazz to spacey orchestral scores, he seeks to compose infectiously fun and unforgettable music.
Austin has premiered his works with many distinguished artists such as GRAMMY-winning soprano Hilá Plitmann, Carpe Diem String Quartet, and a growing number of orchestras around the world including the Austin Symphony, New Conductor’s Orchestra, Tampa Bay Symphony, Columbus Symphony, Orchestra Senzaspine, the New England Philharmonic, and Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini. Recent collaborators include virtuoso-harpist Alexander Boldachev, the Los Angeles Brass Alliance, New Thread Quartet, and Salastina.
Austin holds his B.A. and B.M. from the University of Texas at Austin and his M.A. from University of California, Los Angeles. He expects to earn his UCLA Ph.D. in 2025.
