Bill Evans
<a class="bf" href="https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/the-harmony-of-bill-evans-sheet-music/3865440?aff_id=20370"><b>click here for purchase information</a> - also <a class="bf" href="https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/the-harmony-of-bill-evans-volume-2-sheet-music/19464664?aff_id=20370">volume 2</a>---------------i'd definitely recommend jack reilly's book, the harmony of bill evans, available through hal leonard publishers -- as a close-up guide to bill evans chordal thinking on several tunes, structural analysis, etc. it's essential backround for those who love bill's music.
also, just a reminder that this coming september 15th marks the 25th anniversary of the passing of the great bill evans. once again, we're encouraging musicians to contact jazz media outlets, and jazz radcio stations,so that this doesn't go by without some tributes, etc. last august would have been bill's 75th birthday, and that went by with not much happening, except a radio documentary or two. that such a giant of jazz piano, and such an amazing continuing influence, should warrant nary a mention, is a travesty of justice for the jazz world. we will report any news on www.billevanswebpages.com, so please come visit the site and be in touch. thanks.
