Theodore Shaw Wilson (known as Teddy Wilson) was a master of the Swing era, a definitive jazz pianist with an elegant, sophisticated style.

He studied classical music and developed good piano technique before discovering jazz music. His main jazz piano influences came from jazz pianists such as Fats Waller, Earl Hines, and Art Tatum. See the link below to his enchanting solo album Alone.
