Hello and welcome to my channel! I'm Olly, a jazz pianist and teacher from the UK. This channel is dedicated to sharing my lifelong passion of music, and especially jazz piano. I aim to upload new content regularly - both my own performances for your enjoyment and tutorials on different concepts of jazz piano. I post all my original music projects on my other channel here youtube.com/channel/UCeRHmU66GUEyeKmCPLLslfw so please check that out!
I began playing the piano when I was about 15, and then become interested in blues piano when I was 18. I loved improvising and so it was natural to then get into jazz piano. I've learned most of what I know from listening to pianists such as Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Mccoy Tyner, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock and Thelonious Monk, and from jazz theory books - there is always more to learn with music!
