Dick Hyman: Standards And Strides at Dizzy's Club

About

With solo pianist Dick Hyman
Dick Hyman is a true national treasure whose career includes a nearly encyclopedic output of more than 100 albums, ranging from original piano and orchestral works to interpretations of classic American music, ragtime, and variants of stride piano. The 90-year-old pianist is rumored to never miss a note, and while that in no way defines his art, the rumor’s mere existence in the context of such demanding music speaks volumes of his technical mastery. Hyman was featured on the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis’ latest album, Handful of Keys, and these intimate solo performances at Dizzy’s Club are a perfect opportunity to see the master perform some of America’s greatest music up close and in person.
