United States
Mulgrew Miller (1955–2013) — Piano. Led Keys To The City, Work!, Wingspan. Worked with Kenny Garrett, Tony Reedus, Ron Carter.
Forged in Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, Miller's piano is exemplary and precise. His technique is impeccable, his bebop credentials impeccable — but he has his own voice inside the tradition. As an educator he shaped many young pianists, quietly passing on the language of the music.

Kenny Garrett didn't audition his way into Woody Shaw's band — his roommates let him in. His flatmates, drummer Tony Reedus and pianist Mulgrew Miller, were already in Shaw's group, and on Sunday nights Shaw would open up a set and let the still-unknown Garrett blow. The three would later share a record on Double Take (1985).
