Jesse Green (born 1971) is an American jazz pianist, composer, arranger, record producer. He is the son of ex-big band singer Kathy Preston and jazz trombonist Urbie Green.
== Early life==
Green's first classical piano influence was his cousin Erin. Jesse began studying classical piano at age seven, and at age nine joined his elementary school's concert band as a trombonist. When he was ten, he was a finalist in a nationwide talent competition; winning for his piano rendition of Count Basie’s Jumping at the Woodside. At high school, he played trombone with numerous bands: District Concert Band, Regional Concert Band, All-State Jazz Ensemble, Fred Waring's U.S. Chorus, National Honors Jazz Band, District Chorus Instrument Ensemble, and the John Philip Sousa Memorial Concert Band. During his junior year in high school, he became a member of the East Stroudsburg University Jazz Ensemble. He was piano accompanist for District Chorus as well as the high school chorus, and, for five consecutive years, he was pianist for the Celebration of the Arts Festival ''COTA Cats'' (a big band founded by Phil Woods).
As a student at East Stroudsburg University, Green played trombone in the Concert Band and Brass Ensemble, and piano in the Jazz Ensemble. With this Jazz Ensemble, Green performed with Clark Terry, Lew Tabackin, Freddie Hubbard, Al Grey, Urbie Green, Phil Woods, Dave Liebman, Benny Carter, and Jimmy Heath. As a trombonist, Jesse was selected two years in a row for the Inter-Collegiate Concert Band.
At age 17, Jesse won the National Downbeat Student Award for "best extended composition and arrangement" with his original "Half & Half". He has since written many other arrangements for big band as well as small groups. "Blues for Dad", written for his father, was performed by the COTA Cats at the 1989 COTA Jazz Festival.
