Bryce Rohde

Bryce Rohde

Bryce Benno Rohde (born September 12 1923) is an Australian jazz pianist and composer. He was strongly influenced by George Russell's musical conceptions.

Rohde was born in Hobart, Tasmania. He played jazz in Adelaide early in his career, then moved to Canada in 1953, where he formed the Australian Jazz Quartet with other expatriates. The group recorded several albums and toured widely in the United States, then broke up in 1958 following a tour of Australia itself. Rohde led his own quartets in Australia until 1964, and moved to California in 1965. Since then he based himself out of San Francisco, leading his own ensembles at times. Among those Australian musicians with whom he worked extensively are Bruce Cale and Charlie Munro.
