Career
[ edit ]
Strazzeri began on tenor saxophone and clarinet at age 12, then switched to piano soon after. He attended the Eastman School of Music , then took a job as a house pianist in a nightclub in Rochester in 1952. While there he accompanied visiting musicians such as Roy Eldridge and Billie Holiday .
He moved to New Orleans in 1954, playing with Sharkey Bonano and Al Hirt in a Dixieland jazz setting, but his focus since then was on bebop . He played with Charlie Ventura in 1957–58 and Woody Herman in 1959 before moving to Los Angeles in 1960.
There he worked extensively as a studio musician on the West Coast jazz scene, and toured with Joe Williams , Maynard Ferguson , and Les Brown . He also toured with Elvis Presley in June 1972, including four Madison Square Garden shows in New York, and the following January for the "Aloha from Hawaii" worldwide telecast.
He worked with Terry Gibbs , Herb Ellis , the Lighthouse All-Stars , Art Pepper , Bud Shank , Cal Tjader , Louie Bellson , and Chet Baker , in addition to recording as a leader. He died at the age of 84 on May 9, 2014.[1] [2]
