VA - Jazz Piano History [2006] (20 x CDs)

This magnificent 20CD box set is a warm, intimate journey through the evolution of jazz piano. "Jazz Piano History" is like a warm, inviting conversation with the past, a journey that captures the soulful evolution of American jazz piano. Released in 2006 on the Membrane label, this box set is a beautifully curated collection that brings together a range of styles from the playful syncopation of ragtime to the energetic, heartfelt expressions of stride and boogie-woogie.

What truly sets this collection apart is its abundance of rare recordings. Alongside well-known masterpieces by titans like Scott Joplin, you’ll also discover precious gems that you’re unlikely to hear anywhere else. Imagine diving into never-before-digitized live radio broadcasts, listening to alternate takes that capture spontaneous, real-time creative moments, and uncovering recordings that have been hidden away for decades. These rarities offer a unique and intimate glimpse into the live, unpredictable world of early jaz, a world where every note feels like a secret shared just with you.

The set isn’t just a rundown of famous jazz moments; it’s also a lovingly assembled archive that hints at the contributions of overlooked artists. Alongside the celebrated names, you’ll hear the distinctive sounds of musicians like Blind Leroy Garnett and Jimmy Blythe. Their artistry, though often less heralded, adds a delightful layer of diversity and depth to the overall narrative of the collection.

This is a wonderful survey of jazz piano in solo, trio, small and big band contexts. Jess Stacy's "Sing Sing Sing" with Benny Goodman at Carnegie Hall; Earl Hines' "Weather Bird" with Louis Armstrong; Bix Beiderbecke's "In a Mist", some truly historic performances.

Complementing the audio treasure trove are extensive booklets filled with engaging essays and historical insights, making it feel like you have a friendly guide walking you through jazz’s rich legacy. If you are curious about the roots of this dynamic genre, the “Jazz Piano History” box set warmly invites you to sit back, relax, and let the music tell its incredible story.

There’s always something new to uncover in the rich tapestry of this timeless art form. (B)
