Cellist Doug Gorkoff made the connection and Weeds jumped at the chance to perform a concert he had earlier had to cancel. It was to commemorate 100 years since the birth of Charlie Parker, a pioneer of bebop style jazz with its distinctive rhythm and harmony. Parker started using a string orchestra in recording sessions begun 1949. The album became his legacy. In the KSO version, there is an oboe, harp and French horn. The oboe is a good match for the saxophone, as is Marea Chernoff’s style of play. Conductor Dina Gilbert was another good match, earning Weeds’ praise for her great energy.
