About This Performance

The historic 1950 recording of Charlie Parker with Strings will be revisited by NEA Jazz Master Alto Saxophonist Phil Woods and members of the Pittsburgh Symphony. Parker himself often referred to these sessions as being his all-time favorites featuring classical standards arranged for jazz quartet with strings and winds. Also featured on the program will be selections from the 1955 Clifford Brown with Strings recording performed by Dr. James Moore on trumpet with musicians from the Symphony.
