Bruce David Barth (born September 7, 1958) is a jazz pianist, composer, and producer.

Early life

Barth was born in Pasadena, California, on September 7, 1958.[1] He started to play the piano around the age of five.[1][2] He had private jazz lessons with pianist Norman Simmons from 1978 to 1980[2] and studied at the New England Conservatory of Music in the early 1980s, including under Jaki Byard and George Russell.[1]

Later life and career

Barth moved to New York in 1988, where he was part of groups led by Stanley Turrentine (1989–90) and Terence Blanchard (1990–94).[2] Barth's first album as a leader, In Focus, was released by Enja Records and was based around standards.[3] The follow-up, Morning Call, was also released by Enja and the material was mostly Barth originals.[4] He has led his own small groups since 1993, and has been a freelance pianist and arranger.[2] He was on the teaching faculty of the Berklee College of Music from 1985 to 1988 and Long Island University from 1990.[2] He has also been a record producer, including for vocalist Carla Cook.[5]
