Many of the great names in jazz, from Jelly Roll Morton to Herbie Hancock, have used the piano to express their artistic talent. Musician and instructor Warren Bernhardt lends his two hands to assist aspiring pianists who want to travel that musical road themselves. This program is part two of the three-volume series that covers all aspects of jazz piano. This episode finds Bernhardt mastering the keyboard and its harmonics. Those 88 keys can produce a dizzying array of sounds and harmonies that will become the building blocks of playing jazz standards and improvisation.
