Cedar Walton

Cedar Anthony Walton, Jr. (January 17, 1934 – August 19, 2013) was an American hard bop jazz pianist. He came to prominence as a member of drummer Art Blakey's band before establishing a long career as a bandleader and composer. Several of his compositions have become jazz standards, including "Mosaic", "Bolivia", "Holy Land," "Mode for Joe" and "Ugetsu", also known as "Fantasy in D".〔William Yardley, ("Cedar Walton, Pianist and Composer, Dies at 79" ), ''The New York Times'', August 20, 2013.〕
==Early life==
Walton was born and grew up in Dallas, Texas.〔("Pianist-Composer Cedar Walton Dies at Age 79" ), ''DownBeat'', August 20, 2013.〕 His mother Ruth was an aspiring concert pianist, and was Walton's initial teacher.〔John Fordham, ("Cedar Walton obituary" ), ''Guardian'', August 23, 2013.〕 She also took him to jazz performances around Dallas. Walton cited Nat King Cole, Bud Powell, Thelonious Monk and Art Tatum as his major influences on piano.〔Deardra Shuler, ("Cedar Walton and Barry Harris to play Jazz at Lincoln Center" ), ''New York Amsterdam News'', June 20, 2013.〕 He began emulating recordings of these artists from an early age.
After briefly attending Dillard University in New Orleans,〔 he went to the University of Denver as a composition major originally, but was encouraged to switch to a music education program targeted to set up a career in the local public school system. This switch later proved extremely useful since Walton learned to play and arrange for various instruments, a talent he would hone with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers.
Walton was tempted by the promise of New York City through his associations with John Coltrane, Charlie Parker, and Richie Powell, whom he met at various after-hours sessions around the city of Denver, Colorado. In 1955, he decided to leave school and drove with a friend to New York City. He quickly got recognition from Johnny Garry, who ran Birdland at that time.
