US pianist Roger Williams, who topped the Billboard charts in the 1950s with his solo performance of Autumn Leaves, has died aged 87. Williams is the only performer to have had a US number one with a piano solo. He was known as 'the pianist to the presidents', having performed for US leaders from Harry Truman to George W Bush.
