Black & white

Black & White: The Jazz Piano shows the development of jazz piano styles: from Scott Joplin's ragtime compositions to Jelly Roll Morton's jazz feeling, from swing pianists Teddy Wilson or Hank Jones to blues and boogie pianists such as Meade Lux Lewis and Jimmy Yancey and to imaginative and innovative artists like Oscar Peterson, Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, Count Basie and Duke Ellington. Black & White is a tribute to these and other outstanding musicians who created a unique and distinctive style on the piano. Includes four CDs featuring the most popular musical selections of these noted jazz pianists across various styles of jazz.
