pianoAbout
A jazz pianist and composer, Fred Hersch was the first person to play week-long engagements as a solo pianist at New York's Village Vanguard. He has recorded more than 70 of his jazz compositions and has been nominated for several Grammy Awards.
“Hersch may be one of the most lyrical pianists in jazz today but he avoids the ostentatious and the obvious, eschewing grand gestures and extravagant emotional outbursts in favor of a measured approach as much intellectual and musically referential as emotional.”---George Kanzler, The New York City Jazz Record
