The Essen Jazz Festival Concert is a live album by jazz pianist
Bud Powell and saxophone player
Coleman Hawkins compiled from a live concert by the two artists, joined by
Oscar Pettiford on bass and
Kenny Clarke on drums.[1]
The album was well received by critics, with Joseph Neff writing, "a safe bet that modern jazz fans will welcome this addition to their shelves" and giving the album an A-.[2] Jazz critic
Scott Yanow described Powell's performance as "top form" and described his trio as "all-star."[1]
Years given are for the recording(s), not first release. Because Powell's discography features albums with the same title, record labels are identified to avoid any confusion.
