My favorite is Tony Banks but I can't help but give props to Emerson. His
renditions of classical songs are fantastic.

EDIT: and Patrick Moraz has done some great work as well (particularly with
Relayer.)

Hey, what about Vittorio Nocenzi from Banco del Mutuo Soccorso?

The guy has perfect techique and beautiful sound. He not only studied Piano in Conservatorio di S.Cecilia di Roma, but also Clarinette, Ethnomusicology, History and Philosophy. The guy has a really solid musical and artistic formation, can't understand how he managed to have time for Banco.

I refuse to vote, can't select only one.

Curious, just this afternoon was watching the wonderful Alturas de Macchu Picchu DVD by Los Jaivas and was impressed with Claudio Parra's skills. Not the best technique  but the guy really knows what he's doing, clear sound, beautiful melody, excellent performance (Even though that we don't see the real performance on the DVD, because National Institute of Peruvian Culture denied permission for a live performance in Macchu Picchu).

There's something about Tony Banks... I can't put my finger on what exactly that would be; but the way he plays has something special. Leaving that aside, Rick Wakeman is just a perfect player. All keyboardists listed above are quite unique, anyway.
