- Documental "La Evolución del Solo de Piano en el Jazz" (The Evolution of Solo Jazz Piano) de Bill Dobbins, filmado en 1990 y dirigido por Gerald Birkenstock, propone una mirada general del solo de piano en el jazz.
El film consiste en un estudio de los estilos de "piano solo" desarrollados por 24 de los solistas más influyentes desde el 1900 hasta la actualidad.
Para ilustrar claramente las contribuciones específicas de los diversos pianistas, Bill Dobbins compuso un tema basado en el conocido estándar de "All Of Me". Mediante la aplicación de los enfoques estilísticos de los diferentes pianistas alrededor del mismo tema, es posible apreciar los elementos evocados a través de cada estilo individual.
Para la edición de este video (Parte 2) se utlizó la versión subtitulada al español de Juan Pardo.
El documental está dividido en 2 partes:
1) Estilos Tradicionales - • La Evolución del Solo ...
2) Estilos Modernos - • La Evolución del Solo ...
Parte 2: Estilos Modernos
Duración: 47:36 minutos.

Two incredibly influential jazz pianists left out here are Herbie Hancock and McCoy Tyner. But how one can complain, this is just incredible!
Bill is like the encyclopaedia of jazz piano great video amazing demonstration.
This is ,in a word, stunning.
So Amazing. Dobbins nails so many of our loved piano players. Genius is not a word that one would normally apply to the field of piano pedagogy, but it certainly applies here.
Spot on, not enough can be said about this amazing work.
these aren't just illustrative examples...they are fantastic and beautiful pieces of music as well
informative- and amazing how he understands
Bill is a Tour de Force!
Bill is a true master. Thanks for the amazing work. Love it!!
A wonderful Author Teacher Arranger Composer Pianist and Expert in Clare Fischer's Music.
The influence of Clare Fischer I think is evident to a degree in his own compositions found in the book "A Creative Approach to Jazz Piano Harmony."
George Lukas of piano!!
Bill is Tour de Force!

32:21 Cecil Taylor
Anyone know the name of the piece he plays just after talking about Keith Jarrett please?
It's a variation on "All of Me" as are all the pieces on the video, just in each pianist's style.
who knows whats the name of that piece related to bill evans in 20:30
Waltz For Debby, I think.
no no no waltz for debby is very easy to recognize
All of me xd
He's a better Cecil Taylor than Cecil Taylor
I think K. Jarrett's imitation is the least similar (closer to Chopin than to KJ!). In the evolution of the jazz piano it is missing in this video Art Tatum which engendered O.Peterson and Mac coy Tynner which engendered Chick Corea.
The original video is well over an hour long. This is part 2. Art Tatum is in part 1.
Also, this is specifically about *solo* pianists-you know, pianists playing by themselves. McCoy Tyner did influence Chick (even though they were contemporaries, almost the same age), but his contributions to the jazz piano lexicon were more concerned with harmonic approach and accompaniment style. He’s not really known for his solo piano recordings.
He's stuck with the quirky stylists, not the regular chord changers.
Quirky Stylists? What the hell does that mean? He's showing the solo approaches of a half dozen of the most influential pianists since 1940. (After Tatum) There is Peterson, Garner, Powell. Then Evans and Monk. That's it. Those are the 5 that defined solo jazz piano. There is no quirky pianists involved. Just ALL the major stylistic protagonists of piano Jazz. There are lot of other great pianists but these are the big ones, the defining ones. The ones that everybody emulated and learnt from. you're off in some alternate jazz universe. have a nice time exploring there. Who exactly would you offer as a "regular chord changer" (that's not a term i've ever heard a musician use). But, who?
Lawrence Welk's Pianist? Captain of Captain and Tenille?
if by quirky stylists you mean the genius architects of jazz, then yes indeed.
