Charlie Parker in Sweden 1950

Album by Charlie Parker

Charlie Parker in Sweden 1950 is a live recording by American alto saxophonist Charlie Parker, recorded in Sweden in 1950. The performances showcase Parker's bebop language—rapid, inventive alto lines, complex harmonic improvisation and close small-combo interplay—and document a facet of his post-war European activity that illustrates his continuing role in the evolution of modern jazz.
