So, what is jazz bebop style? Bebop or bop is a style of jazz characterized by fast tempo, instrumental virtuosity and improvisation based on the combination of harmonic structure and melody. It was developed in the early and mid-1940s. This style of jazz ultimately became synonymous with modern jazz, as either category reached a certain final maturity in the 1960s. Charles "Charlie" Parker, Jr was born in the U.S in 1920 and passed away in 1955. He was a jazz saxophonist and composer also known as "Bird". Parker was a highly influential jazz soloist and a leading figure in the development of bebop.
