Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Charlie Parker began playing saxophone at eleven years old, quitting school at just fifteen to enroll in the Musician's Union and pursue a career in music full time. He couldn't have known it at the time, but his innovations in improvisation and syncopation would come to define the very fabric of Jazz music. 

Parker honed improvisational horn skills in the Kansas City Jazz Clubs and the Missouri Ozarks, developing a progressive fast-paced style that came to be known as Bebop. Charlie's immense talent attracted a stable of young students who became virtually every iconic name in Jazz -- Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, Bud Powell, Miles Davis, and Charles Mingus, among others.

While he tragically died at just 34 years old, Parker's genius output led to a burst of progressive musical experimentation that has never stopped changing music or jazz.
