The performers on this program constitute a virtual "Who's Who" of immortal keyboard players familiar to every jazz buff in the world. Some led bands; some established fame as soloists; some worked in small ensembles; and all left an indelible mark on this uniquely American art. Piano Legends explores the work of twenty-three renowned jazz pianists as filmed and videotaped over the last 60 years. These films are part of the private collection of David Chertok, known to jazz enthusiasts for his unique film archives of legendary jazz performers. This program covers every major period in the progressive development of jazz pianism from the rags and stomps of "Fats" Waller to the contemporary work of Cecil Taylor.
