Jazz: 1x8
Risk: 1945-1955
The bop revolution’s influence would spread to other musicians, but unlike swing, it would never become a popular music. The rapid-fire solos and complicated chord structures made bop a musician’s music, unfit for dancing. Indeed, Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie’s music even alienated established musicians like Armstrong. “Risk” provides an in-depth biography of the bright, brief life of Parker, and includes interviews with his former wife.
