Jazz music has since gained immense popularity worldwide as jazz tunes fill the air in most entertainment joints and homes today. When the name jazz is mentioned, the first name that comes into the minds of many jazz lovers is Charlie “Bird” Parker. Parker is one of the brains behind modern jazz music.

Charlie “Bird” Parker was born on August 29, 1920, in Arkansas where he also grew up to become one of the greatest jazz soloists. Parker is said to have had a musical career dream from childhood. However, history shows that his father influenced him a great deal in his musical career. Parker is said to have entered the field of music at the tender age of 11 years when he began playing the saxophone. Later, he joined the school band which helped him nurture his musical talent. During his childhood, he joined and played with local jazz bands around his hometown, Kansas, where he perfected the art of jazz. Around 1937, Parker decided to advance his musical talent by joining Jay McShanns band where they played jazz music in night clubs and other venues across the country. Four years later, Parker parted ways with McShanns to join Earl Hines, with whom he played music for about eight months.

Parker developed new jazz known as bebop in the 1940iii. Historians reveal that although bebop has been embraced and loved by people of all ages, bebop was initially rejected by people in the 1940s. Bebop was rejected because the style used deviated from the mainstream jazz style that people were used to at the time. Nevertheless, being a creative and great musician, Parker managed to incorporate a variety of the bebop style that people later embraced in the entire country.

The most typical style associated with bebop is that, unlike the main jazz style, bebop involved swings, particularly triplet-based swing feel. The arrangements of swing comprised of sections, which are designated specifically for improvisation. However, the bebop tune simply involved the main theme and the final statement. Additionally, it was common for bebop musicians to compose melodies with the known chord progression.
