Jersey History: Sir Roland Hanna
Longtime Teaneck resident Sir Roland Hanna [1932-2002] scaled the heights of the jazz world in his short 70 years integrating classical into his bag of swing and bebop. Dick Katz, who co-founded Milestone Records in 1966, once said of Hanna, “because of Roland's extensive training, he developed a bravura technique that led him into areas where many jazz pianists don't go.”
