Duncan Wilson is a Toronto-based jazz pianist. While his own projects are firmly rooted in the bebop tradition, Duncan is known as a versatile sideman who works in many diverse musical styles and situations. While he was still a student in the University of Toronto's esteemed Jazz Performance program, Duncan began sharing the bandstand with established Toronto jazz artists including Dave Young, Terry Clarke, Larnell Lewis, Roberto Occhipinti, Pat Collins, Kevin Turcotte, Alex Dean, Colleen Allen, Ted Warren, and many more. Since 2023, he has led the Duncan Wilson Trio, featuring Christopher Parnis on bass and Petros Anagnostakos on drums, which consistently performs his exciting original compositions and arrangements. Duncan received his Bachelor of Music from UofT in 2025 and can now be found on stage throughout Toronto and Ontario at venues and festivals such as The Rex Hotel, The Jazz Bistro, The Jazz Room (Waterloo), Manhattans (Guelph), The Toronto Jazz Festival, and The Kensington Market Jazz Festival.
