Piano JAZZ Music

[Mompou]

I usually play classical piano music (Ravel, Debussy, Mompou, Blancafort, de Sévérac, Tailleferre, Scriabin, Liszt, Grieg, Madetoja, etc.) very much and I adore it. But I'm also pretty much into Jazz music and I enjoy playing Gerhswin's piano pieces a lot.

I'm sure that there has to be at least a few Jazz pianists in these boards. Can you recommend something really good for me? I'd appreciate it very much.

Much obliged.

how about some of Chick Corea's Children's Songs? Even though many of the published Bill Evans books are inaccurate, they give you a decent idea of the tunes and the voicings.

Interesting subject... I personally have no tolerance for jazz. Excluding Paul Schoenfield's "Cafe Music" which is a really cool piano trio, its brilliant and somewhat hard.

Jazz fan here. The earliest jazz tune I know of (excluding Bach's bebop lines) is that late Beethoven sonata that almost swings in the last(?) movement ;-)

Into Bill Evans, Bud Powell, Keith Jarrett, Michel Camilo and others...
