Ep 72: Pan Amsterdam on Roy Hargrove | Accolades

January 16, 2023

In episode 72 I talk to Leron Thomas aka Pan Amsterdam about Roy Hargrove, an American jazz pianist and composer who worked primarily as the leader of his trio. His use of impressionist harmony, interpretation of traditional jazz repertoire, block chords, and trademark rhythmically independent, "singing" melodic lines continues to influence jazz pianists today.
