Charlie Parker - Alto saxophone, Dizzy Gillespie - trumpet
It was in 1952 when Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie appeared on a television show to first Down Beat Poll Awards to think that made them the best instrumentalists in jazz, but more specifically of bebop, and then Tadd Dameron's famous play "Hot House" to demonstrate to viewers.
It is one of the few videos that show playing Charlie Parker and he demonstrated his skills tadelos, supported by a good humored Dizzy Gillespie.
Even today, the video is often used for documentary and other reports on the Bebop (such as in Ken Burns' documentary "Jazz"), because there are rare impressions of the controversial music late forties and early fifties.
