Paul Desmond interviews Charlie Parker 1954

Follow
Buster Birch

A famous moment in jazz history when Paul Desmond interviewed the great Charlie Parker. They discuss Parker's musical beginnings, how he practised 1115hrs per day for a period of 34 years, how he met Dizzy Gillespie and Miles Davis, and his desire to continue his musical studies with the great classical composer Edgard Varese and, possibly after that, enrol at the Paris Conservatoire of Music. Parker's humility and sincerity are both moving and inspiring.
