About Jacky Terrasson Pianist Jacky Terrasson has been a unique force in the jazz world since winning the Thelonious Monk Piano Competition in 1993. Within a year, he signed to Blue Note, toured with Betty Carter, and was named one of the 30 artists most likely to change American culture in the next 30 years by The New York Times Magazine. He has since worked with greats such as Dee Dee Bridgewater, Dianne Reeves and Ry Cooder, in addition to building a reputation for creating some of the best jazz trios around. One of the most widely traveled jazz pianists, Jacky has been dubbed the "piano player of happiness" by Telerama magazine in France and will bring those good feelings to Jules! write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Jazz News :: home page |
