Xavier Davis, associate professor of jazz piano at Michigan State University College of Music, launched his professional career as a jazz pianist when the legendary vocalist Betty Carter spotted his outstanding talent at the 1994 International Association of Jazz Educators convention in Boston while he was performing with his college ensemble. Carter brought Davis to New York, hiring him exclusively as the pianist of her working trio. Today, he is one of the most accomplished jazz pianists world-wide.
Having led master classes and clinics all over the world and coming from a family of music educators, passing on knowledge and skills to young musicians is very important to Davis. His teaching appointment at MSU followed six years of teaching at the Juilliard School.
