Bill Evans

Legendary composer and pianist Bill Evans teaches the viewer the meaning of jazz, through live performance and engaging discussion. Filmed as an informal discussion between Bill Evans and his brother (professor of music at Louisiana State University), this documentary features in-depth discussion of Evans' internal process of song interpretation, improvisation, and repertoire. Through demonstration on the piano, Bill uses the song 'Star Eyes' to illustrate his own conception of solo piano and how to interpret and expand upon the melody and underlying chord structure. This is an absolute must-have for fans of Bill Evans and jazz piano.
