Band/artist history
BIO DON ALBERTS High style Trio and Solo interpretations of Standards, rich with extensive harmonies and colorful improvisation and a brilliant delivery. A must for piano lovers. Don Alberts is more than a pianist, he’s a piano stylist in the finest and most classical tradition of Jazz. His style is reminiscent of the dignity and panache of Duke Ellington and the eloquence of Bill Evans, yet clearly contemporary, and clearly his own. Don has developed his music through gigs with well known musicians and performers; Leroy Vinnegar, Chet Baker, Shorty Rogers and Bud Shank, recordings with renowned Portland bassist David Friesen, and house pianist at the famous “Bop City” in San Francisco. A native of the San Francisco area, he attended San Jose City College as a music major and studied with Thomas Ryan at San Jose State. Don has appeared in many JAZZ venues and major festivals throughout the Northwest and Canada including the “Mount Hood Festival Of Jazz” in Portland, Oregon. He also has gained note as a composer. His works are performed by his own trio and quintet and by other notables; trumpeter Al Molina, Tom Harrell, Graham Bruce and Saxophonist Francis Vanek Don perfected his skills playing the San Francisco clubs which exposed him to the challenging music of Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Bud Powell, much of which became part of his foundation and style rooted deeply in bebop and the blues. The romantic side of his playing comes from the influence of pianist Bill Evans with whom he exchanged some key compositions. Don is included in the famous San Francisco photo ‘Giants of Jazz’- Don now lives in San Diego.
