About Jazz Pianists
Jazz piano grew up in barrooms and at Harlem rent parties, where a player had to fill a room alone with ten fingers. Some of these musicians were showmen and some barely looked up from the keys, but you can tell any of them within a few bars. The names here are the ones people still say with a little lowered voice.
