Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker - Diz 'n Bird At Carniegie Hall

This is a live concert with Dizzy Gillespie, the famous trumpet player with big cheeks, and Charlie Parker, the great saxophonist. These two together played alot of great phrasings together, intertwining each of their runs with each other, and creating very intricate experience. Some of the tunes sound like big band jazz songs, and have a real jazz swing feel to them, as if they are playing for a dancing competition. I really enjoyed with listening to Dizzy's trumpet squeal over the entire band. My favorite song from the concert would be "A Night In Tunisia," which I'm currently learning how to play on the piano.
