Piano Player is a compilation of recordings featuring jazz pianist Bill Evans released in 1998 on the Columbia label.

The album contains a previously unreleased alternate take of the third movement of George Russell's piece "All About Rosie" and a version of "My Funny Valentine" with Miles Davis from Jazz at the Plaza Vol. I, both of which feature extended solos by Evans.

It also includes two selections from the album Pike's Peak with vibraphonist Dave Pike, six previously unreleased duets with bassist Eddie Gómez, and a previously unreleased trio recording of Evans's composition "Fun Ride," recorded during the sessions for The Bill Evans Album.
