Swing, bebop, and cool-jazz Artist and film Composer who also became a record company executive for French CBS' jazz division in 1964.
He relocated to Paris in 1946 where he became a member of Jean-Claude Fohrenbach's combo and served as an ensemble-organizing point-man for visiting U.S. jazz performers.
He recorded with bebop trumpeter Clifford Brown, Milt Jackson, Al Cohn, Max Roach, Frank Foster, and many others.
His family noticed his musical proclivities while he was young, and he began taking violin lessons at the age of five. However, he took up the piano three years later.
He collaborated with many famous Musicians of his day, including Drummer Kenny Clarke.
