Artist: Al Haig Trio
The Al Haig Trio was a piano trio led by Allan Warren Haig, a leading white pianist in the bebop movement. They are known for their recordings on the French Vogue label in the mid-1950s and albums such as "Invitation," recorded in London after their revival in the 1970s. They leave behind a legacy of fine recordings characterized by their light, swinging touch and sophisticated playing that marked the transition from bop to modern jazz.
