Una Winifred Atwell was a Trinidadian woman who gained popularity for her skilled piano playing. She was born on February 27th of the year 1914. She played piano since she was a young girl. Her musical talents took everyone by surprise after she wrote “Piarco Boogie” which was later renamed as “Five Finger Boogie” because someone told her that she couldnt due to her being Trinidadian and not American. Her family supported her move to the United States to study with musician, Alexander Borovsky. She later moved to London to study at the Royal Academy of Music where she later became the first woman pianist to be awarded the academy’s highest grading for musicianship. Atwell soon earned a long-term contract with entrepreneur, Bernard Delfont. With this opportunity, she was able to release three CDs. One of these CDs, “Jezebel” went to the top of the charts. However, it wasn’t until her fourth CD that she gained the most popularity.
