Description
Bird With Strings: Ken Peplowski Quartet & Orchestra
Cleveland native tenor saxophonist and clarinetist Ken Peplowski, "...arguably the greatest living jazz clarinetist," (BBC) presents "Bird With Strings" a birthday celebration of Bird's best loved album - Charlie Parker with Strings, originally released in 1950.
For this special engagement at Birdland the ensemble will perform the recorded arrangements as well as newly discovered and unheard arrangements commissioned by Charlie Parker from his favorite arrangers: Gerry Mulligan, John Carisi, George Russell, John Lewis, Mercer Ellington, Ed Herzog, Neal Hefti, from their recent release on Arbors Records: "Unheard Bird."
