Biografia

Bud Powell (New York, 27 settembre 1924 – New York, 1º agosto 1966) è stato un pianista e compositore statunitense .

Insieme a Thelonius Monk, Powell fu il piú importante pianista . Trasferí con originalità lo stile di Charlie Parker al pianoforte, introducendo un nuovo virtuosismo al di fuori della tradizione stride, incidendo come sideman con i piú grandi solisti della sua epoca, come solista e con formazioni proprie.

Gravi problemi psichici ne minarono la salute e ne compromisero il talento artistico e portandolo ad una morte prematura. Il suo malinconico soggiorno parigino ispirò nel 1986 il film ‘Round Midnight, interpretato da Dexter Gordon e accompagnato dalle musiche di Herbie Hancock.

    I'm influenced, amazed and inspired by so many artists whose contributions were MONUMENTAL to the jazz idiom. However, if I was only allowed to name one person who, directly and indirectly, contributed the most to advancing the jazz idiom, (inc. modernizing jazz piano), I pick Bud Powell. Without him, would we have had Bill Evans? McCoy Tyner? Chick Corea? Keith Jarrett, to name a few? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I believe I'm fairly learned in this area, but by no means am I a scholar or historian. To the best of my knowledge, he was one of the first, if not the first pianist to conceptualize "King Parker's" blazing tempos, exquisitely executed melodies and contrafacts using a linear approach. It's likely this is why he was dubbed "Charlie Parker of the piano." Bud contributed SO much to the jazz idiom and to the advancement of contemporary piano performance in his short tragic life! It's an OUTRAGE his genius was never recognized much less appreciated while he was alive!

    Why does everyone now play Monk tunes while so many Bud Powell compositions remain obscure? The two composer/pianists (along with Elmo Hope) were very close lifelong friends . Bud's heyday found Monk in obscurity, Monk was granted jazz sainthood postumously, with his work now required listening in any high school/college jazz course and necesary to know at any jam session. But why dont Bud's gems like the ballads "I'll Keep Loving You" and "Time Waits" get the respect of "Ruby My Dear" or "Ask Me Now"? I've made many musician friends who know Monk when I introduce them to obscure Bud Powell tunes like "Buster Rides Again", "I'm In the Mood for a Classic", or "Jump City" for the first time.

    simply the greatest jazz pianist the world has ever known. An absolute tragedy that he hasn't gotten the limelight. He deserves the same recognition as Monk.
