dc.description.abstractThere are currently numerous texts and publications which outline the fundamental concepts which are relevant to the study and performance of jazz piano. However, there is a smaller body of work that clearly demonstrates the practical real-world application of these fundamental concepts. This thesis presents a collection of five performance etudes for jazz piano which encompass a number of concepts and approaches which are fundamental to the study of jazz piano, while also, as performance relevant pieces, illustrate the practical application of these approaches and concepts. The relevance of the concepts and approaches covered is justified by providing examples of their use on recordings by historically significant pianists. These Five Performance Etudes for Jazz Piano are based of the practical application of relevant styles and concepts spanning the 1940s to the 1960s the period of jazz which cultivated the greatest number of musical tools still used today.
