Dizzy Gillespie's Legacy Lives On
Posted on June 21, 2010 at 5:25 AM
June 21, 2010 at 5:25 AM ✺Good morning✺
The Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band finished a 6-night engagement last evening (I'm sure with a packed house at every show) at New York City's legendary Blue Note!
During the summer of 1998, the band was formed to perform Gillespie's classic big band repertoire and continue the legacy left by the late Jazz master.
The current band members were many of his closest associates and collaborators:
- James Moody (saxophone and flute)
- Jimmy Heath (tenor saxophone)
- Paquito D'Rivera (alto & soprano saxophone, clarinet)
- Clark Terry (trumpet and flugelhorn)
- Roy Hargrove (trumpet)
- John Faddis (trumpet)
- Randy Brecker (trumpet and flugelhorn)
- Claudio Roditi (trumpet)
