Program #318 (March 14 at 8:00 p.m.)
Music of Bill Evans featuring performances by Howard Alden Trio, Richie Beirach Trio, Chick Corea, Mitchel Forman and Fred Hersch.
Borrowing heavily from the impressionism of Debussy and Ravel, pianist Bill Evans brought an introverted, relaxed, and lyrical classical sensibility into jazz. Along with his keen technical ability and nuanced sense of harmony, Evans worked to democratize the role of the bassist and drummer in his succession of piano trios, encouraging greater contrapuntal interplay.
After gaining widespread attention as a member of Miles Davis late- 50s group, Evans garnered further acclaim for his own work, leading a celebrated trio with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian and recording classic albums like 1960 s Portrait in Jazz, 1961 s At the Village Vanguard, and 1962 s Waltz for Debby, the latter of which borrowed its title from the pianist s best-known composition.
