McCoy Tyner’s piano style – complete with sophisticated chords and an explosively percussive left hand – transcended conventional styles to become one of the most identifiable sounds in improvised music. Along with Bill Evans, Tyner has been the most influential pianist in jazz of the past half-century, and his rich chord clusters continue to be imitated by many young jazz pianists.The “Jazz Profiles” shows – nearly 200 of them – are part of the Tim Owens Jazz & Broadcast Collection at the University of North Texas Music Library. In a partnership with Tim and UNTML, we’ve picked a handful of noteworthy shows to share with you. You can find more “Jazz Profiles” shows at the UNT Music Library’s Jazz Syndicate (www.library.unt.edu/jazzsyndicate), and learn more about 32 Bar Blues' clothing collection and commitment to the arts at 32barblues.com
