Cecil Percival Taylor (Nova Iorque, 25 de março de 1929 - Nova Iorque, 5 de abril de 2018) foi um pianista de free jazz e poeta[1] norte-americano. Com formação clássica, Taylor é geralmente lembrado como um dos inventores do free jazz. Sua música é caracterizada por uma abordagem extremamente enérgica, produzindo sons improvisados complexos, frequentemente envolvendo clusters e complexas polirritmias. Sua técnica ao piano já foi comparada à percussão, descrita como "uma bateria afinada em 88 tons" (referindo ao número de teclas do piano).[2]

Morreu aos 89 anos em 5 de abril de 2018, em Nova Iorque.[3]
