A beautifully lyrical pianist and composer, Liz Story fuses her classical music background with a wide range of styles, embracing jazz, flamenco, folk, pop, and impressionistic styles. Displaying a striking gift for creating music that is at once thoughtful and moving, Liz tells compelling stories in the middle ground between jazz harmonies and classical technique. The Boston Globe praises her "soaring sonorities evoking a romanticism that is delicate and pensive, rife with the sorrow of first heartbreak, before the scar tissue"

A native of California, Liz began her musical training as a young child. She continued her classical piano studies at the Juilliard School of Music before switching over to jazz piano. Her 1983 debut album on the Windham Hill label, Solid Colors, gained her widespread recognition, and she became one of the label's most popular artists. In the years since, she has recorded numerous CDs, gathering a huge following as well as three Grammy nominations. She's currently at work on a new album, Night Sky Essays, consisting of a composition for each constellation of the zodiac.
