迪吉.葛拉斯彼 (Dizzy Gillespie) :199316

迪吉‧葛拉斯彼是最有名的比波普爵士樂 (Be-Bop) 作曲家之一,這是一個現代爵士樂的風格形式,是葛拉斯彼和鋼琴家泰羅尼爾斯‧蒙克 (Thelonious Monk) 、鼓手肯尼‧克拉克 (Kenny Clarke) 、吉他手查理‧克利斯亭 (Charlie Christian) ,以及中音薩克斯風手查理‧「新兵」‧帕克 (Charlie "Yardbird" Parker) 等人一同創造的音樂風格。迪吉‧葛拉斯彼對爵士樂與現代音樂有莫大的貢獻,他一直演奏到自己在199316日去世為止。迪吉‧葛拉斯彼形容比波普爵士樂是一種具有不同起源的音樂,有不同的和弦。猜猜看迪吉‧葛拉斯彼最常在那個城市裡表演。


Dizzy Gillespie was one of the most famous composers of be-bop, a form of modern jazz that he created along with pianist Thelonious Monk, drummer Kenny Clarke, guitarist Charlie Christian, and alto saxophonist Charlie "Yardbird" Parker. Gillespie contributed an enormous amount to jazz and modern music and he played up until he died, which was on this day, January 6, 1993. Gillespie described be-bop as music with a different accent, " ... on the up beat. Instead of OO-bah, it's oo-BAH. Different chords too." Guess what city Gillespie played in the most.
