hmm... well... this depends on the genre of music. So I'll try to picks my
favorites REGARDLESS of genre.
Tori Amos - this woman is amazing. Whether on piano, keyboard, or
harpsichord-- she amazes me. She's really a sight to see.
Bill Evans - jazz legend. Incredible.
Brad Mehldau-- young up-and-comer jazz pianist that has made quite a splash!
He's already got 7 albums out-- plus a lot of soundtrack work. Check him
out!
Martha Argerich - if you haven't heard her perform Prokofiev's third piano
concerto yet-- do it. It is simply stunning.
there we go.

There are so many, but here's a few names to keep the thread going:
Thelonious Monk!
Bud Powell
Elton John (I think he's largely underrated because of being a pop guy)
Elbernita "Twinkie" Clark of the Clark Sisters (contemporary gospel -
simply fantastic!)
Fats Waller
