Perhaps
the
piano
virtuoso of the
20th Century
, a middle-class kid from
Long Island
who suffered many years of post-conservatory poverty (and public apathy) while shaping his art. In the early days (the 50's), sidemen like
Steve Lacy
tried to come to grips with his music; in the 60's, he found like-minded players for his groups (and could ditch the familiar reference points of
Cole Porter
and
Thelonious Monk
tunes). In the 70's, he taught a new generation of improvisors via academe.
