Adam Nussbaum dr
Born in Salem, PA in 1938, studied at Berklee College (1955-58) before going on the road with the likes of Chet Baker, Stan Getz, Joe Henderson and the Brecker Brothers. He was Cannonball Adderley's last piano player until the saxophonist's untimely death in 1975. "Ivory Forest" is among Galper's best albums as a bandleader, memorable also for its co-leader John Scofield, then a 27-year-old with a brilliant future coming up. Sco's feature performance on "Monk's Mood" is a wonderous highlight of the album. Jazz Podium magazine hailed the Galper-Scofield quartet as "one of the most vital and inventive bands of the day."
Hal Galper
Active Decades: '70s, '80s and '90s
Born: Apr 18, 1938 in Salem, MA
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Post-Bop
An excellent if generally overlooked advanced hard bop pianist, Hal Galper studied at Berklee (1955-1958) and then worked in many groups, including with Chet Baker, Stan Getz, the Brecker Brothers, Bobby Hutcherson, and with such singers as Joe Williams, Chris Connor, and Anita O'Day. He played electric piano (an instrument he has since dropped) with the Cannonball Adderley Quintet during its last years (1973-1975) and spent time playing with Lee Konitz and John Scofield. Galper, who has recorded as a leader for Mainstream, SteepleChase, Enja, Concord (including a solo set at Maybeck Recital Hall), and Blackhawk, gained his greatest notoriety for being a pianist with Phil Woods's quartet/quintet from 1981 to 1990.
