Anyone listening to contemporary jazz piano is very likely to tune into the legacy of Bill Evans, particularly when confronted by the
work of Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett and Brad Mehldau. These artists collectively display various elements of his style, ranging from reflection to subtlety and taste in the extreme. His importance to the development of jazz is unquestionable, the words of British jazz critic Barry McRae being the perfect summation: 'A brilliant pianist who somehow managed to disguise the fact, Bill Evans never paraded his technique but, like all true virtuosi, he made no mistakes. His home was the piano trio and he brought to piano, bass and drums an orchestral awareness and expansiveness that belied the size of the group.'
