Bloggers,
As we depart for end of term holidays, please spend some time to go over material covered this far. We will be finishing up Jazz next term and conclude with our half yearly examination.
If you have not responded to the posts below, please take your time to do so. You will find it to be a helpful study tool in preparation to this exam.
Have a restful and happy holiday.
Mr. M
I will be giving an Easter egg to anyone that mentions this post before the holidays!

This week we will be looking at the styles of Bebop and Cool Jazz, listening to pieces by the late great Charlie Parker and Miles Davis.
Have a look at this video of Charlie Parker and Dizzie Gillespie playing together in 1951 and post a response to this question:
What are some of the characteristics of Bebop you notice in this clip?
