Borah Bergman (December 13, 1926 – October 18, 2012) was an American free jazz pianist. ==Training and influences== Bergman was born in Brooklyn to Russian-Jewish immigrant parents.〔(Obituary in Wire )〕〔Kelsey, Chris (December 2004) (Chris Kelsey ''Borah Bergman: His Fatha's Son''. ) JazzTimes.〕 His grandfather Meir Pergamenick was a cantor.〔(Borah Bergman: Meditations for Piano )〕 Accounts of when he began to learn the piano vary: some assert that he learned clarinet as a child and did not commence his piano studies until adulthood;〔Kelsey, Chris (''Artist Biography''. ) AllMusic. Retrieved September 22, 2013.〕 others, that he had piano lessons from a young age;〔 one of his own accounts is that he took piano lessons as a child, then changed to clarinet, before returning to piano after being discharged from the army.〔(''Borah Bergman: You Must Judge a Man by the Work of His Hands'' ) (November 4, 2005) All About Jazz.〕 As an adult, he developed his left hand playing to the point where he became essentially ambidextrous as a pianist, and could play equally fast in both hands,〔 and they could act completely independently of each other;〔Polillo, Arrigo. In ''A New Frontier'' (liner notes ). Soul Note.〕 Bergman himself preferred the term "ambi-ideation" to "ambidextrous", as it conveyed the added ability to express ideas achieved when both hands were equal.〔 Bergman cited Earl Hines, Bud Powell,〔 and Lennie Tristano〔 as formative influences, although his own style was based on free improvisation rather than song form. Commenting on his other influences, Bergman said that "I was influenced strongly by Ornette Coleman... I was also very influenced by chamber music and Bach and Dixieland or New Orleans, where all of the instruments were playing contrapuntally and polyphonically. So I figured I'd like to do it myself".〔
