Die Evolution des Solo Jazz Pianos ist eine Studie über 24 der einflussreichsten Solo Jazz Piano Stile, von 1900 bis heute. Um die spezifischen Beiträge der einzelnen Pianisten deutlich zu veranschaulichen, komponierte Bill Dobbins ein Thema, das auf der Akkordfolge des bekannten Standards All of Me basiert. Durch die Übertragung der stilistischen Eigenheiten auf ein und dasselbe Thema ist es möglich, die subtilen aber trotzdem einprägsamen Elemente jedes Stiles klar zu erkennen. Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen Waller, Ellington, Tatum, Monk und Rowles, Tatum, Hines und Wilson, Smith und Ellington, Corea und Beirach etc. veranschaulichen, dass musikalische Individualität größtenteils das Ergebnis unbewusster Bevorzugung bestimmter musikalischer Elemente ist, und nicht die Kultivierung der Originalität um ihrer selbst willen. Wir hoffen aufrichtig, daß diese DVD das Interesse am Solo Jazz Piano aber auch an kreativer Musik im allgemeinen anregt. LEHR-Programm gemäß § 14 JuSchG

The Evolution of Solo Jazz Piano is a study of solo piano styles developed by 24 of the most influential solo pianists from 1900 to the present. In order to clearly illustrate the specific contributions of the various pianists, Bill Dobbins composed a theme based on the well-known standard All of Me. By applying the stylistic approaches of the different pianists to the same theme, one becomes aware of the subtle yet evocative elements of each individual style. Common elements between Waller, Ellington, Tatum, Monk and Rowles, Tatum, Hines and Wilson, Smith and Ellington, Corea and Beirach etc., should make it clear that musical individuality is largely the result of the subconscious emphasis of some musical elements over others, rather than the self-conscious cultivation of originality for its own sake. We sincerely hope that this DVD may serve as a stimulus toward the further study of the solo jazz piano tradition in particular and for creative music in general.
