I read a story a while back that they were lip-synching this recording. That's why Bird was cutting up and smirking at the beginning of the video. The video producers told him to knock it off.
Talk about call and response. These two masters truly seemed to get that this performance was a passing of the torch. Hawk knew he understood bebop but wasn't the best to convey it. Bird knew who he was borrowing from and you can hear him paying respect. I've not seen this one till now, and can definitely notice this mutual appreciation (even more than the Pops/ Dizzy video.) Can you?
@@brucescott4261 I love Lucky‘s Tricotism Record, but eventhough he is a „Modern“ Saxophone Player, he was not around from 1942 to 1945 in the inner Circle of Be Bop Tenor Saxophon Players.
What one thoughts on this, is " body n soul by coleman hawkins n birds playing " parkers mood ", how soulness in their playing , ok , "it's thight like that ";
Hawk was the epitome of old school - sweet note choices, silky tone, brilliant melodic sense, easy to listen to, something you could sing or hum. Bird was the foremost exponent of the music he had had a hand in developing, bebop - blindingly fast and intricate technical runs, surprising turns of phrase at full speed, hard for the ear to keep up with at times, but a seamless flow. I don't know how he came up with those phrases, and you sure couldn't sing or hum them, but you could be carried away by them and ride them. And he could also play sweet ballads. No one like him.
@@jeffdwyer1655 Super comments. I think it's best not to try and analyze Bird. Just let it wash over you. It's like he crammed two years of his life into one.
@@alanosterman7130: There is a lot of sense - and poetry - in what you say. He was such a fascinating, ultimately tragic, character that it's hard as a musician not to try to pin down exactly what defined his genus. Cheers!
@@jeffdwyer1655. He came up with those ideas because he was gifted . He had a special talent that was far beyond mostly everyone else, and you’re absolutely right, there is no one like him and probably never will be.
Trane was the man! He got me really deep into jazz with a song called "Equinox ". Monk, I could never figure out. I just don't get the way he played. His solos just sound so disjointed. Monk made a album with Art Blakey which was all of Monk's compositions. I've tried many times to listen to that album, and I just can't do it...!!
I thought it was the other way around. Bird, with his expressions and eyes seems to be saying " check this cat put, he came before me and is still playing the hippest stuff!"
@@mikeymjh. I’m talking about content, bird said a whole lot more musically , and that’s exactly why so many horn players tried to play like him. It’s more than just style it’s about the amount of talent . Sorry if you don’t like my opinion but that’s how I hear it.
I love Charlie Parker's smile when Buddy is soloing!

He was probably high.
CP gave a smile of acknowledgement about Hawk’s beautiful playing. Perhaps alluding to that his ‘swing’ style playing was truly beautiful and ‘dated’.
Coleman Hawkins plays so emotionally, like the best balad player ever. I cry how good the are

Thank you God for the genius of Charlie Parker.
From California great performance, excellent solos on both saxophones, the drummer had it going on BIG TIME.
the line at 1:20 is so intricate and sparkly
amazing footage of legends, all four of them,
I like the relaxed atmosphere and Charlie parker responses to his side men. Ella's appearance is the cherry on top. Great video thanks guys.
凄い豪華なメンバー！
愛して止まないバードの動く姿を見るだけで、
涙腺がヤバい😢
im sorry but charlie parker is from another place, GENIO !
He's in my top 10, but I have The Hawk ahead of him.
Hawk and Bird, I'll love either of their recordings until I'm in the grave & hopefully beyond🎹.
Вічна Музика! Вічні в нашій пам*яті МУЗИКАНТИ! ЧАРЛІ PARKER FOREVER!!! ВІЧНИЙ ДЖАЗ!!! КИЇВ УКРАЇНА
all about the feel and the weed.. 😊..ah, freedom to explore...beautiful
You mean heroin
すばらしい映像ありがとうございます。感動しました、とても・・・。
charlie barely move his fingers, it's amazing
This is music! Yes!
Passing the torch
The second and only two captures on film of Bird! Mag frickin awesome!!!
There are at least 2 more.
@@398Glove Do you have links to it? Thanks
Amazing¡¡¡
👏🏾👏🏾
I think that Coleman Hawkins, Budd Johnson and Don Byas were the 3 First Be Bop Tenor Sax Players.
@erikeddergott5514 ...Eddie Davis and Lucky Thompson was around, too! Hawk started in the twenties.

Uuuuuuffffff👏👏
A lot of effort to figure out who wrote this song #Ballade". Not surprisingly, the authors are Coleman Hawkins and Charlie Parker, of course!
What one thoughts on this, is " body n soul by coleman hawkins n birds playing " parkers mood ", how soulness in their playing , ok , "it's thight like that ";
🔥🔥🔥
Genius!
i suspect that this was a norman granz/JATP production; it is apparently
about half of the bird we have on film, which aint very muckinfutch.
What year?
is there a full video of this somewhere for purchase? dvd? blu ray? streaming? what is this clip from?
So good I was laughing
Different schools of thought here about just how you treat a note. How accessable that note is to the listener. Endearing or contrary ?

The Hawk is the Baddest

has Celebrity been pitch shifted from Bb to B?

Hawk is bugging big time listening to the greatest jazz sax player ever. And the beautiful thing is he knows it.
I thought it was the other way around. Bird, with his expressions and eyes seems to be saying " check this cat put, he came before me and is still playing the hippest stuff!"
Putain que c'est Bon ... merci les gars
J'y étais présent à ce concert !
C'était super
Une merveilleuse époque de ce club Métro Strasbourg Saint Denis
Longue vie au NeW MorNinG
I’m sure that those drum brushes come in handy when cleaning up loose cigarette ash.
Buddy Rich was the best jazz drummer
@jamesnicol3831 ...False!
In jazz...I don't think there's a best anything
@@saxmankidvery unique statement about improvisation period ...
No, Max Roach, quizás.
sample de sapmlpes ufff gonorrea severo tema malandro
I find it hard to believe this was lip synced
Hawkins got blown away big time by bird. Sorry that’s just my opinion.
Two different styles, blowing away, don't come into it . Think of Jimi hendrix vs. George benson. Get it.

There's no competition between these two gentlemen.
@@lj3musicjulien855 very true, who could compete against Bird ?
This ends with Ella, Pres and others. How the fuck do I get o hear what happens next? Please someone send me this link!
Same!
Youve probably already found it by now, but if you look up "Ad Lip & Pennies - Lester Young 1950" you should find some of it
Bird moved the keys without moving his fingers.. telekintetics
