Much too early! RIP
One of the greatest pianist and composer of jazz piano, whose harmonic wizardry was astonishing.
Thank you, maestro, for all the poetry you gifted us.
Quite a shock. I was involved in organising a series of workshops with Taylor for September. Can't quite believe he won't be there. Terrible loss.
A well-written and sensitive obituary for John in the Guardian.
So, I can not believe, recently I bought the album "Breve" - the beauty and serenity of the art of the jazz ballad at its apex. The three, Hayden Chisholm - alto saxophone, Matt Penman - bass and John Taylor - piano, take part in a pristine, richly textured chamber music. Yes, it's a really lovely album. Taylor, of course, is in great shape.
I'm terribly sorry. British piano legend.
thank you very much
thanks to Andy for this fine concert of GREAT John Taylor !
May the files of the 1978 NDR Jazz-Worlshop #132 with Azimuth be available ?
Would be a superb memorial of both John Taylor and Kenny Wheeler to have this workshop posted...
