Tokoh Jazz : Count Basie (1904 - 1984)

Tokoh Jazz : Art Tatum (1909 - 1956)

Ia mempopulerkan swing tempo tinggi dan selalu mereharmoniskan lagu asli yang ia mainkan. Konsep permainannya tidak dapat diikuti musisi lain pada era 1930-an. Setelah 20 tahun kemudian, ide tersebut baru dieksplorasi oleh musisi jazz genre bebop. Menariknya, ia bermain solo tanpa iringan band pada sebagian besar rekamannya karena sulit mencari pemain lain yang dapat mengikuti temponya.

Tokoh Jazz : George Shearing (1919 - sekarang)

Tokoh Jazz : Chick Corea (1941 - sekarang)

Melalui karyanya, Chick Corea adalah pembawa arus perubahan dalam improvisasi maupun komposisi yang mengundang lebih banyak pendengar jazz. Spain adalah karyanya yang paling fenomenal yang menjadi nomor wajib di hampir setiap pertunjukan jazz.
Karakteristik permainan Chick adalah melodi dan harmoni yang modern, sehingga membentuk nuansa yang khas. Ritme lagu yang dihasilkan sangat kuat, efektif, dan enerjik. Kemampuan lainnya adalah permainan synthesizer dan electric piano yang dominan serta kepiawaian aransemen dalam sebuah band.
Tokoh Jazz : Errol Louis Garner (1921 - 1977)

Pola ritme tangan kiri Errol menyerupai ritme yang sering dimainkan gitaris jazz seperti Freddie Green (yang menjadi inspiratornya). Errol dapat diterima dimana saja, mulai dari klub malam di New York hingga gedung konser, karena gaya permainannya yang cukup berkelas.

Tokoh Jazz: Bud Powell (1924 - 1966)

Kutipan artikel dari wikipedia :
Earl Rudolph “Bud” Powell (September 27, 1924 – July 31, 1966 in New York City) was an American Jazz pianist, usually considered one of the most influential in the history of the music. Along with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie he was instrumental in the development of bebop, and his virtuosity as a pianist led many to call him “The Charlie Parker of the piano”.
