Mingus Plays Piano is a 1963 solo jazz album by Charles Mingus. The album is notable for Mingus' departure from his usual role as composer and double-bassist in ensemble recordings, instead playing piano without any additional musicians.
In the process, moreover, Mingus has also developed his own piano style; and judging from these performances, it is through the piano that Mingus is best able to express the more gentle, the more reflective and the more innocent elements of his personality.
