Yardbird Suite (John Reischman)

July 4th, 2018

Last year, David Benedict's fabulous Mandolin Monday series brought us John Reischman playing his chord-melody arrangement of Charlie Parker's tune Yardbird Suite. It's been on my to-do list to make a transcription for, oh, about a year. It's really a treat to play even at a tempo slower than the brisk 178 BPM speed taken by John. Two PDF files are attached. First the chord-melody arrangement of the head, second John's improvisation.

Here's the link to the video on Youtube.
