Charlie Parker And Dizzy Gillespie - Bird And Diz 3
Review by Arturo de la Peña
Bird And Diz 3, the album by Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, is a true masterpiece of bebop jazz. The album features ten tracks that showcase the incredible virtuosity and improvisational skills of both Parker and Gillespie.
The opening track, "Bloomdido," immediately sets the tone for the album with its fast-paced, intricate melody and complex chord changes. Throughout the album, Parker's saxophone and Gillespie's trumpet weave in and out of each other, creating a dynamic interplay that is both thrilling and captivating.
Tracks like "Leap Frog" and "Mohawk" showcase Parker's incredible technical skills, while Gillespie's solos on "My Melancholy Baby" and "Relaxin' with Lee" are nothing short of breathtaking. The album also features a number of original compositions by Parker and Gillespie, including "An Oscar for Treadwell" and "Passport."

Barcode: 4988031151310About Charlie Parker And Dizzy Gillespie
American alto saxophonist, composer and bebop pioneer (b. August 29, 1920, Kansas City - d. March 12, 1955, New York City, aged 34). Widely considered to be one of the most influential of jazz saxophonists, jazz musicians, and indeed musicians in general. Also known as 'Bird' (a shortening of 'Yardbird', Parker acquired the nickname early in his career with many contradictory stories regarding the name's origin). Parker was an extremely fast virtuoso and introduced revolutionary harmonic ideas into jazz, including rapid passing chords, new variants of altered chords, and chord substitutions.
Parker died on March 12, 1955 in the age of only 34 in the suite of his friend and patron Baroness Pannonica de Koenigswarter at the Stanhope Hotel in New York City. The official causes of death were lobar pneumonia and a bleeding ulcer, but Parker also had an advanced case of cirrhosis and had suffered a heart attack. The coroner who performed his autopsy mistakenly estimated Parker's 34-year-old body to be between 50 and 60 years of age.
