James D. Walbert was an extraordinary pianist and composer.
Known as the “wizard of the keyboard,” he is related to two current members of the SGMA Hall of Fame. He was the son of W. B. Walbert and the grandson of James D. Vaughan.
He began his Gospel Music career in the 1930s as pianist for the Vaughan Radio Quartet for which he played internationally. He has performed in concert with Liberace, Jerry Lee Lewis, Red Skelton, and Judy Garland.
He brought a flamboyant style to the Gospel Music stage, much to the chagrin of his father. James Walbert was a classically trained musician, and a very gifted piano teacher in both the sacred and secular fields. He was inducted into the Southern Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 2004.
