Teddy Wilson, born Theodore Shaw Wilson, was a pioneering American jazz pianist whose elegant and virtuosic style made him a cornerstone of the swing era. Known as "the definitive swing pianist" by critic Scott Yanow, Wilson's playing was smooth, steady, and highly accessible, blending influences from Earl Hines and Art Tatum. His career spanned over five decades, during which he collaborated with jazz legends such as Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. Notably, Wilson was one of the first black musicians to perform prominently with white musicians, notably with Benny Goodman's orchestra. Beyond his sideman work, Wilson led his own groups and recording sessions, leaving an indelible mark on the world of jazz. His contributions earned him the title of NEA Jazz Master in 1986, cementing his legacy as one of the finest pianists of the swing era.
