If you are a piano student, it is important to know something about piano history, and some of the great pianists in the past. One such person who had a great influence on jazz piano was Willie "The Lion" Smith. His compositions and performances, from early in the 20th century, have had a great influence on many more recent musicians. The Willie Smith compositions, each one with a short description preceding it, will provide both a joy and a challenge to any pianist. They were transcribed with great care from early recordings by Michael "Spike" Wilner. There is much to learn and enjoy about the stride style of jazz, and its influence on early piano composers and players alike.
