In January this year (2021) I played a solo piano Live
Stream from my home studio and I featured music written by
leading jazz pianists (as well as a piece by Edvard Grieg).
And here you can listen to the individual tracks. Watermelon Man buy Herbie Hancock
Played by
Terry
Herbie is
another of my favourite jazz piano innovators and here is
his most renowned piece - Watermelon Man, from his 1962
debut album on the Blue Note label- Takin’
Off
Notturno by Edvard Grieg
Played by
Terry
This is from the
six Lyric Pieces of Book V for piano Op.54 written by
Edvard Grieg in 1891. My excuse for including this
classical (apart from its inherent beauty) is that the
Romantic and Impressionist composers often used harmonic
devices which have become common place in Jazz.
