The Tampa Jazz Club is very proud to announce a
new season of concerts, at a great new venue.  
We hope you’ll join us for these Sunday shows in
Ybor City – and tell your friends, too!  

We’ll be presenting concerts in co-operation with
Hillsborough Community College, as part of the
HCC Visual & Performing Arts Series, in the
beautifully renovated Performing Arts Building
Theater.  It’s on the NE corner of Palm and 14th
St. in Ybor City, with plenty of free parking nearby.

Dick Hyman

Solo Piano Recital


Throughout a busy musical career that got underway
in the early '50s, Dick Hyman has functioned as
pianist, organist, arranger, music director, and
composer. His versatility in all of these areas has
resulted in film scores, orchestral compositions,
concert appearances and well over 100 albums
recorded under his own name. While developing a
masterful facility for improvisation in his own piano
style, Mr. Hyman has also investigated ragtime and
the earliest periods of jazz and has researched and
recorded the piano music of Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll
Morton, James P. Johnson, Zez Confrey, Eubie Blake
and Fats Waller, which he often features in his
frequent recitals. Other solo recordings include the
music of Irving Berlin, Harold Arlen, Cole Porter,
George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers and Duke
Ellington. Some of his recordings with combos are
From The Age Of Swing, Swing Is Here, Cheek To
Cheek, and If Bix Played Gershwin, plus numerous
duet albums with Ruby Braff, Ralph Sutton, Shelly
Berg, Ken Peplowski and others.


Mr. Hyman's concert compositions for orchestra
include his Piano Concerto, Ragtime Fantasy, The
Longest Blues in the World, and From Chama to
Cumbres by Steam, a work for orchestra, jazz combo,
and prerecorded railroad sounds. A cantata based on
the autobiography of Mark Twain was premiered with
the choral group, Gloria Musicae, in Sarasota. In a
growing catalogue of chamber music compositions, his
most recent pieces are Dances and Diversions for the
Kinor String Quartet, a second string quartet which
has been played by the Shanghai Quartet.


Dick Hyman's Century Of Jazz Piano, an encyclopedic
series of solo performances, has been released on
Arbors Records. Other new recordings include
"Thinking About Bix" and "E Pluribus Duo" with Ken
Peplowski.


Mr. Hyman is a Yamaha artist
