About the artist

Dorothy Donegan

The incomparable Dorothy Donegan was a force to be reckoned with in the jazz world. With her dynamic piano playing and larger-than-life personality, Donegan dazzled audiences with her virtuosic skills and playful stage antics. Hailing from Chicago, Donegan began playing piano at the tender age of five and quickly developed a unique style that blended swing, boogie-woogie, and classical influences. Her performances were a sight to behold, featuring lightning-fast runs, percussive two-handed playing, and jaw-dropping improvisation. Donegan's career spanned over six decades, during which she collaborated with jazz legends such as Count Basie, Duke Ellington, and Charlie Parker. Despite her undeniable talent, Donegan never quite achieved the mainstream recognition she deserved, often being overshadowed by her male counterparts. But for those in the know, Donegan's music was a revelation, showcasing her unmatched technical prowess and boundless creativity. Off-stage, Donegan was known for her quirky sense of humour and larger-than-life persona. She was never one to shy away from controversy, often speaking her mind and challenging societal norms. Whether she was performing at Carnegie Hall or joking around with fans, Donegan always brought her own unique flair to everything she did. Sadly, Dorothy Donegan passed away in 1998, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire musicians to this day. Her influence can be heard in the work of contemporary artists who push the boundaries of jazz and embrace a spirit of fearless experimentation. Dorothy Donegan may not have always played by the rules, but in doing so, she created a musical legacy that will stand the test of time.
