All albums to buy or stream.\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;A multi-dimensional and self-taught virtuoso, Roy Meriwether blends jazz, blues, and gospel with classical elements in a unique and innovative style that has drawn enthusiastic crowds to night clubs, colleges, and concert halls across the country. Born in Dayton, Ohio, Mr. Meriwether started playing piano at the age of three and had composed two pieces before he was four. Shortly thereafter, he began playing in his father\u0026#39;s church, accompanying the family choir, and performing with gospel singers throughout the Midwest. Mr. Meriwether turned professional with his own group at age 18 and has devoted himself to both composing and performing ever since. Reviewers are frequently impressed by his power. Critic Arnold Shaw once described him as a “two-fisted pianist who in this day of right-handed wizards has the sound of a champion, with thunder in his left hand and lightning in his right.” As recently reported in the Scottsdale, Arizona Daily Progress: “Mr. Meriwether performs both standards and original compositions with a creativity that is nothing short of genius. Meriwether himself is the epitome of a \u0026#39;giving\u0026#39; musician, at his best with a responsive, listening audience. He does not require it, but appreciates it and rewards it with dynamite delivered with the power his hands produce.”\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcQ73OWx8rbwy7TMl88-yqe0xvZP0wZ-Oa7SVnP2pLT_4JzPodCJaxZwjJ48hoUfMjMf2NaK0W7cqDu5HCs\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;highresaudio\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/www.highresaudio.com\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL\u0026quot;,[[1794125019101313,22450896,504908818],null,null,null,null,[[2,0,0,8]]],null,\u0026quot;f1c2309e-3455-4d58-955a-644db930f3f4\u0026quot;]]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e is a vibrant, high-energy live \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ohjeanrecords.com\/collections\/jazz\" title=\"jazz\"\u003ejazz\u003c\/a\u003e set produced by Teo Macero\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[[[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,[247864,null,0]]]]--\u003e.
