Described as "a master who plays it his way" by The New York Times, "a poet of a pianist" by The New Yorker and "one of the small handful of brilliant musicians of his generation" by Downbeat. Hersch has released eighteen albums as a solo artist or bandleader, two of which were nominated for Grammy awards for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance; he has co-led another twenty albums and has appeared as sideman or featured soloist on over eighty further recordings. In addition, Hersch was awarded a 2003 Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship in Music Composition.

Hersch was the subject of a TV feature profile on CBS Sunday Morning with Dr. Billy Taylor and has been featured on such popular National Public Radio programs as Morning Edition, Fresh Air, Jazz From Lincoln Center, and Jazz Set.
