Bird lives! The SWR Big Band at the Berliner Philharmonie

Saxophonist and composer Charlie “Bird” Parker is a legend. The Jazzszene are brilliant in improvisation, technically virtuoso, rhythmically and harmonically innovative and revolutionary. The Karriere des Musikers, gilded as one of the Gründerväter des Bebops, war kurz. Charlie Parker has been going strong for 34 years in today’s change – but his music continues, who dies with a Grammy-extended project “Bird Lives!” der SWR Big Band says. Under the direction of Magnus Lindgren and with John Beasley ben Klavier erklingt Parkers Musik in neuem, Orchestralem Sound.
