Over his lifetime, he recorded more than 200 albums, earned eight Grammy Awards, and set a new standard for jazz piano through his iconic trios with Ray Brown, Herb Ellis, and Joe Pass. This centennial celebration brings together an outstanding lineup of musicians paying tribute to his extraordinary legacy.
