Description
“Diz’N Bird at Carnegie Hall” documents an awesome concert performance by a partnership whose influence on the history of jazz is inescapable and profound, Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. Here are fifteen selections from a Carnegie Hall performance by Dizzy Gillespie – with Joe Harris on drums, bassist Al McKibbon and pianist John Lewis as the rhythm section - with an orchestra and special guests Parker and Ella Fitzgerald, which took place September 29th, 1947. Parker and Gillespie square off in the quintet format for the first five tracks, then Parker drops out and Gillespie and crew are joined by an orchestra whose members include tenor James Moody, Milt Jackson on vibes, and Gillespie’s frequent foil when in a Latin mood, percussion player Chano Pozo. The Parker-Gillespie tracks are among the crown jewels of Twentieth Century music. No two musicians ever played more closely together. The unison passages are as breathtaking as the solos, which are products of genius. Charlie Parker & Dizzy Gillespie Diz ‘N Bird at Carnegie Hall 1947  CD / 1997 / Remastered / 320Kbps Tracklist: 01.
