Harmonically speaking, Bill Evans remains today, one of the most influential musicians and composers in jazz. Bill Evans' compositions are among the richest and most original compositions in jazz, laced with beautiful, lush alterations and passing chords. This set represents a sampling from Bill's illustrious career from Waltz For Debby, written in 1954, to Laurie, composed in 1979. Other favorites provide unique challenges and give us some valuable insight into Bill's creative genius.
