Donna Lee (Charlie Parker)

[Andy Bartosh]

[Hyppolyte Bergamotte]

I’m smiling, Andy, listening to this standard.


Young specialist in medical Endocrinology, I had signed up for a three-year cycle at the evening course at the Brussels Jazz Conservatory.


In the second year, our professor in practical jazz standards -the late Paolo Radoni- only made us play Charlie Parker..


Play faster, Milou: next week, I want hear you to play Donna Lee at 230 beats/m!


Next week : Paolo, I can’t play this anymore, not even Autumn Leaves : my wrist is painfull and swollen :-)




What is your secret, Andy, to keep such an iron wrist at your age ?


cheers

Well played, the head is difficult, the Forum had a Donna Lee [Practical Standards] thread very recently.

Bebop heads: Donna Lee

We're currently starting Dewey Square, it would be great if you posted your playing of Dewey Square in the thread here:
