What is dizzy gillespie's nickname?
Dizzy Gillespie, whose birth name was John Birks Gillespie, was born the youngest of nine children in Cheraw, South Carolina on October 21, 1917. Dizzy became a very popular trumpet player with many jazz enthusiasts because he was very practiced and skilled at the art of jazz improvisation. He possessed such an innate sense of timing and feeling for jazz music that he was much more versatile at improvisation than many of his professional colleagues. As a result, whenever he played solos live on stage, Dizzy usually had the ability to answer fellow musicians through improvisation by playing back a string of notes with added melodic improvements, even though he hadn't practiced the note sequences beforehand. Dizzy was actually the first musician to combine African, Caribbean and Latin rhythms together to create his Cu-Bop style. Gillespie solely discovered Cu-Bop during the Be-Bop era which he co-created with fellow musician and friend, saxophonist Charlie Parker. Once Cu-Bop became popular many musicians attempted to imitate this very unique jazz style that Dizzy created. During the years that he performed music regularly, Dizzy frequently traveled to Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America as a musical ambassador with the sponsorship of the U.S. State Department. During his travels, he mentored many musicians that desired to play like him and many of his students eventually went on to experience their own professional jazz success. Some of Dizzy's former pupils include: Arturo Sandoval (trumpeter), Mongo Santamaria (composer/musician), David Sanchez (saxophonist), and percussionist/band leader Bobby Sanabria. Another factor that contributed to Dizzy's popularity was his unusual trademark trumpet, that had a bell that tilted upward at a 45 degree angle. Although the truth regarding the origins of Dizzy's trumpet varied at times, the facts support that he begin using this trumpet design regularly from 1954 until his death. He was also popular for the way that his cheeks puffed out to appear swollen when he played because of the amount of air that they filled with. This swollen cheek condition has since been officially acknowledged by the medical community which they now call, "Gillespie's Cheeks" due to Dizzy. He also appeared on an episode of The Cosby Show titled "Play It Again Vanessa" as the character Mr. Hampton in 1984. John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie died on January 6, 1993 in Englewood, New Jersey due to incurable pancreatic cancer. After hearing of his death, the band Spyro Gyra paid tribute to him with a song titled, "Birks Law" which appears on their 1993 CD "Dreams Beyond Control."
