The most comprehensive website ever created for a jazz musician.

Offering MP3 files, sound clips, and nearly one hour of video featuring:

  • Classic performances of Billy with his Trio, with Max Roach and David “Fathead" Newman, with a Big Band, and playing solo piano (Kennedy Center Tonight A Salute to Duke).

  • Interview with Billy where he discusses his practice regime and his influences and mentors with PBS host Charlie Rose.

  • Rehearsal, interviews and performance of Billy's composition “Homage," commissioned by and performed with the Juilliard String Quartet with Billy's trio, featuring Billy on piano, Victor Gaskin on bass and Bobby Thomas on drums (CBS Sunday Morning).

Other features include:

Home page content that is generated dynamically so that each time there is a new visitor to the site, the home page appearance is updated.

A complete list of Billy's compositions -- instrumentals, vocals and orchestra works, as well as his music books -- available for purchase or license. Downloadable forms for licensing recording rights for CD, video or DVD uses or synchronization rights for motion picture, TV or commercials both domestically and internationally with a complete list of sub-publishers and other representatives throughout the world.

Billy's music is featured throughout the site, for visitors to sample, download MP3 files, and purchase his CDs.
