Peace Piece
''Peace Piece'' is a jazz piece recorded by Bill Evans in December 1958 for his album ''Everybody Digs Bill Evans''. It is a pastoral improvisation recorded by Evans at the end of the recording session and is one of his simplest, built on a gentle C major 7 to G9 suspended 4th two chord progression, the same first chords of "Some Other Time" from the musical ''On the Town'' by Leonard Bernstein which Evans also recorded. The same progression featured in the opening to "Flamenco Sketches" which he recorded with Miles Davis the following year; Davis took a liking to the piece and wanted to reuse it.
Although a peaceful song, however, it also features a lot of discordant notes throughout the latter half of the song which add tension. The song, with its free form peaceful melody and timeless, meditational quality, has featured in numerous soundtracks of films and music in ballet choreography and has been recorded by fellow jazz musicians. It featured in Bo Widerberg's ''Love 65'' (1965), Gaurav Seth's ''A Passage to Ottawa'' and Philip Seymour Hoffman's ''Jack Goes Boating'' (2010). Pianists Richie Beirach, Ricardo Fioravanti, Liz Story and Stefano Battaglia, the guitarists Stephen D. Anderson and Nino Josele, flautist Herbie Mann, and classical pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet have all recorded "Peace Piece". The Kronos Quartet also recorded "Peace Piece" as a string quartet on the album ''Music of Bill Evans'' with Eddie Gómez on bass and Jim Hall accompanying on guitar.〔
Evans evokes the feeling of being alone in the song and recalled that a teenage fan said that when he first heard it he "felt like he was standing all alone in New York".〔 Evans had many requests to play the piece live in his last years but he refused because he believed that the composition would lose its value and meaning as it had been an inspiration at the moment only. He only ever played it once live with the Bill Evans Dance Company in Seattle in 1978 to accompany an abstract and lyrical modern dance put on by the dancers.

Jacques Réda, a poet and jazz critic, has written a poem in French on "Peace Piece".
== In films==
The piece has been used in several films including ''Jack Goes Boating'' (2010).
