Prominent partakers in the mid-forties dawning of what is still known as "modern jazz" included saxophonist Charlie Parker, pianist Thelonious Monk and John Birks Gillespie, already nicknamed "Dizzy", the head-spinning, vertiginous trumpeter. Admittedly, the latter was the most turbulent member of the team, the fantasist and pratical joker. It was sometimes forgotten that he was endowed with the same savoir-faire as his comrades and that he had the same thirst for invention, based on the sturdy foundations as had been laid over the twenty preceding years, topped by new reasons for being proud of jazz, opposing the encroachment of showbiz which was simply retaining the superficial aspects of this music . But he also had the knack of getting the message across, and his attitude on stage as in his music rendered "bebop" accessible to each every one. Every second of his whirling solos is captivating. Moreover, in the present selection he is only surrounded by small set-ups. The pleasure experienced from hearing him and his fellow adventurers in the dazzling proof of a splendid form of art, capable of stimulating and the body and soul.
