About This Show
Pianist John Lewis was one of McPartland's first guests on Piano Jazz during season one in 1979. The founder of the Modern Jazz Quartet talked about his legendary group and about his first big gig with Dizzy Gillespie. Lewis and McPartland flesh out the roots of bebop on Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee" and end the hour going even further back to the source on "Stompin' at the Savoy."
