Kenny Drew, (born Aug. 28, 1928, New York, N.Y.—died Aug. 4, 1993, Copenhagen, Den.), U.S.-born jazz pianist who was the centre of a largely black expatriate jazz colony that settled in Copenhagen in the 1960s. Drew began the study of classical piano at age five and attended the High School of Music and Art in New York City. He was early influenced by such pianists as Fats Waller, Teddy Wilson, and Art Tatum and, later, by Bud Powell and Thelonious Monk, and throughout his career there were elements of both swing and bebop in his playing. During the 1950s Drew accompanied and recorded with several of the major jazz artists of the time. After a brief period on the West Coast, he went to Paris in 1961, and in 1964 he settled in Copenhagen, where he became house pianist at the Montmarte Jazzhus. There he began an association with the Danish bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen, with whom he performed and recorded extensively. Drew later took up composing and orchestrating and was involved in music publishing and recording businesses. His son, Kenny Drew, Jr., also became a jazz pianist. --- britannica.com

A talented bop-based pianist (whose son has been one of the brightest pianists of the 1990s), Kenny Drew was somewhat underrated due to his decision to permanently move to Copenhagen in 1964. He made his recording debut in 1949 with Howard McGhee and in the 1950s was featured on sessions with a who's who of jazz, including Charlie Parker, Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Milt Jackson, Buddy DeFranco's quartet, Dinah Washington, and Buddy Rich (1958). Drew led sessions for Blue Note, Norgran, Pacific Jazz, Riverside, and the obscure Judson label during 1953-1960; most of the sessions are available on CD. He moved to Paris in 1961 and relocated to Copenhagen in 1964 where he was co-owner of the Matrix label. He formed a duo with Niels-Henning Orsted Pederson and worked regularly at the Montmartre. Drew recorded many dates for SteepleChase in the 1970s and remained active up until his death. --- Scott Yanow, allmusic.com
