BUD POWELL 1953 WINTER SESSIONS JAPAN EDITION

Powell was one of the key contributors to the development of bebop. Patrick Burnette notes that Powell and Elmo Hope were "credited with creating the modern piano style of single-note right hand runs and left-handed chordal punctuation."According to drummer Kenny Clarke, many of Monk's compositions were written in collaboration with Powell, and even pianists who did not adopt the bebop style, such as Duke Ellington, visited his home in Willow Grove regularly to hear him play. Powell was, in turn, influenced primarily by Thelonious Monk and Art Tatum. Disque et pochette sont super
