Savion Glover February 28, 2008

Savion Glover is a tour-de-force of unmatched tap dance virtuosity who is known for percussive complexity over visual flash. He produces earthshaking tap with the sounds of jazz, hip-hop, R&B, neo-soul, rock and funk. The word "improvography," which is now used by Glover to describe his energetic shows, was coined by Gregory Hines, whose death spurred Glover to revitalize his semi-dormant career. McCoy Tyner is considered one of the most influential jazz pianists of our time and has developed a unique percussive style. He has played with the John Coltrane Quartet and other top musicians over the years.
