C6th Course - Yardbird Suite - Jim Loessberg's Pedal Steel Course

'Yardbird Suite' is a bebop standard composed by Charlie Parker in 1946.  It follows an AABA form.

"Charlie Parker’s original 1946 recording of 'Yardbird Suite' (Genius of Charlie Parker) is wonderful and will forever be the definitive recording of the song and a necessary starting point for those studying it. Among subsequent versions, Max Roach’s 1957 recording (Max Roach 4 Plays Charlie Parker), featuring Hank Mobley and Kenny Dorham, is wonderful and provides a stellar example of the development of bop through the 1950s. There are a number of vocal recordings of the song, and Carmen McRae’s 1955 version (Here to Stay) is a standout among them." Noah Baerman - Jazz Pianist and Educator

Yardbird Suite is taught by Jim Loessberg as a single-string melody. The basic chords are included.  This is an audio CD course with printed tab for C6th pedal steel.
