Biography

Dena DeRose (born February 15, 1966) is an American jazz pianist, vocalist, and educator from Binghamton, New York. DeRose began playing piano at age three and attended Binghamton University.

Subsequent recordings on the Sharp Nine label include Another World (1998), I Can See Clearly Now (2000), and Love's Holiday (2002). DeRose released A Walk in the Park (2005) on MAXJAZZ and later albums United (2016) and Ode to the Road (2020) on HighNote.
