Bruce Barth
Bruce (*1958 in Pasadena, CA) is a jazz pianist, composer, and producer. He started
to play the piano around the age of five.
He had private jazz lessons with pianist Norman Simmons from 1978 to 1980 and studied
at the New England Conservatory of Music in the early 1980s, including under Jaki Byard
and George Russell.
Bruce moved to New York in 1988, where he was part of groups led by Stanley Turrentine (1989–90) and Terence Blanchard (1990–94). Bruce's first album as a leader, In Focus, was released by Enja Records and was based around standards. The follow-up, Morning Call, was also released by Enja and the material was mostly Barth originals. He has led his own small groups since 1993, and has been a freelance pianist and arranger. He was on the teaching faculty of the Berklee College of Music from 1985 to 1988 and Long Island University from 1990. He has also been a record producer, including for vocalist Carla Cook. from Wikipedia |
