Early life and education

Christopher Wesley White was born in Harlem, New York, and grew up in Brooklyn.[2] He graduated in 1956 from City College of New York, and in 1968 from the Manhattan School of Music. In 1974, he earned his Master of Education from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. In 1994, he did postgraduate Advanced Computer Study at Berklee College of Music.[2]

White was an occasional member of Cecil Taylor's band in the 1950s, credited on the 1959 Love for Sale album.[3] From 1960 to 1961 he accompanied Nina Simone; subsequently he was a member of Dizzy Gillespie's ensemble until 1966.[4]

He later founded the band The Jazz Survivors and was a member of the band Prism.[4] In addition to this, he collaborated with Billy Taylor, Eubie Blake, Earl Hines, Chick Corea, Teddy Wilson, Kenny Barron, Mary Lou Williams, Duke Ellington, Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae and Billy Cobham.
