Jazz at the library

Jazz music and piano go hand in hand, and this year Wexford-pianist Terry Bryne continues Wexford Library’s exploration of the genre during recent Wexford Fringe Festivals. In general, jazz pianists already play piano at a high level. Like Terry, they usually have an intuitive understanding of music theory compared to pianists in other genres. Terry, who appeared at Jazz at Johnstown this year, has always dedicated himself to both the art of playing jazz and of playing piano in his own style and is harmonically and stylistically way ahead of many of his contemporaries.
