The article examines the contributions of leading bebop pianists – Tadd Dameron, Thelonious Monk, Al Haig, Bud Powell, and Duke Jordan – in shaping modern jazz thinking and teaching practice. The features of their piano language, harmonic complexity, rhythmic plasticity and linear improvisation are analyzed, as well as intersections of styles that reflect a continuous chain of jazz metamorphoses. It is shown that the study of these works contributes to the development of analytical thinking, a sense of form and the creative personality of the student.
