After almost forty years, these classic arrangements by Med Flory of Charlie Parker solos harmonized for fi ve saxophones are available for students and professionals.
The idea for celebrating the creativity of Parker goes back to 1956. According to Flory, he began transcribing the solos from a set of records that were sold to him by the alto saxophonist Joe Maini. He wrote three arrangements and Flory, Maini, Joe Kennedy, Richie Kamuca and Bill Hood ran them down for fun. Bassist Buddy Clark heard them and suggested Flory create a whole book of such solos. But it wasn’t until the early ‘70s that Supersax really came together. Flory and company rehearsed in his home for over a year until Flory’s wife fi nally suggested that they play at a club in Los Angeles called Donte’s. The reception was phenomenal, and the group soon made its fi rst album, Supersax Plays Bird for Capitol Records. Supersax toured all over the world and has recorded nine albums to date; in 1974, one of them won a Grammy award.
The original scores and parts (where available) were used as the main sources for these publications.
This arrangement of Chi Chi was recorded with the L.A. Voices on the 1986 record Volume 3: Straighten Up and Fly Right.
