In this episode of DW Jazz Concerts, we'll be listening to the German vibraphonist and composer Christopher Dell and his other two trio members, drummer Christian Lillinger and contrabassist Jonas Westergaard.
Tonight s Jazz Feature is a bit different as this is our Fundrive Edition of The Jazz Show and I wanted to have a shorter Jazz Feature interspersed with reminders to donate to CITR s Fundrive by going to www.cirt.ca/donate. For the Jazz Feature we present four classic recording sessions with the great alto saxophonist and pioneer of Modern Jazz. We will hear these four sessions spanning 1947 to 1953. Charlie Parker will be heard with trumpeter Miles Davis, pianists Bud Powell, Duke Jordan, John Lewis and Al Haig and bassists Tommy Potter, Curley Russell and Percy Heath and master drummer Max Roach. That will be tonight s Jazz Feature : a small tribute to Bird.Charlie ParkerMay 8, 1947Donna leeCharlie ParkerMay 8, 1947Chasin The BirdCharlie ParkerMay 8, 1947CherylCharlie ParkerMay 8,1947BuzzyCharlie ParkerOct.26,1947DexterityCharlie ParkerOct.26,1947Bongo BopCharlie ParkerOct 26,1947Dewey SquareCharlie ParkerOct 26,1947The HymnCharlie ParkerSept 24,1948PerhapsCharlie ParkerSept 24,194
