Keyboard Style
Whilst John Taylor's unique piano style draws on the whole of the jazz pallette and considerable influence from classical music, his approach is characterised by a sophisticated and advanced rhythmic and harmonic sensibility. Rhythmically he is a specialist in asymmetrical meters and in employing "drumming" patterns on the keyboard. Harmonically, he has significantly developed and expanded the harmonic vocabulary of musicians such as Bill Evans and Gil Evans (see references below).

Famous quotes containing the word style:
“There are neither good nor bad subjects. From the point of view of pure Art, you could almost establish it as an axiom that the subject is irrelevant, style itself being an absolute manner of seeing things.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
