Northwest jazz lost one of its sturdiest pillars — and driest wits — when Chuck Deardorf, bassist and former head of the Cornish College of the Arts jazz department, died of COVID-19 on Oct. 9. He was 68.

“It came too fast,” said pianist Jovino Santos Neto, whose Quinteto featured Deardorf for many years. “He was one of the best in the world.”

Elected to the Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame in 2010, Deardorf was a familiar face for fans, whether he was leading his own group with guitarist Dave Peterson or working as a regular member of Santos Neto’s or vibraphonist Susan Pascal’s bands. He also worked for many years with pianist Dave Peck, the late masters Bud Shank and Don Lanphere, and an encyclopedia of jazz greats including Kenny Barron, Zoot Sims, Chet Baker, Art Farmer, Marian McParland and Joe Williams.
