Brad Mehldau stands as a beacon of innovation in the jazz world, intertwining the richness of classical music with the spontaneity of jazz to create a sound uniquely his own. With a career spanning over three decades, Mehldau has carved out a niche for himself not just as a pianist of exceptional skill and depth, but also as a composer who likes to explore and blend genres. His ability to traverse musical landscapes—from the works of Bach to the songs of Radiohead—has not only garnered him critical acclaim but also a dedicated following. In this interview, we delve into Brad’s creative process, his approach to blending different musical traditions, and his thoughts on the evolution of jazz. Needless to say I’m a huge fan of Brad‘s music.
