Between the Lions Be Bop episode clip

[@prjacobs1]

I'm the musical director of Between The Lions and I scored this segment. The trick was to find something that was iconic Charlie Parker, combine it with original music and make it fit the story. Here, the structure of A Night In Tunisia is different than the original. I had to make room for the dialogue from the book. I also got the show to use actual footage of Charlie Parker. I felt that kids should see the man, himself. It's like doing a show about the Beatles and not seeing them.

You single handedly introduced me to jazz music as a child despite my father's resistance. Thank you so much! I love you with all my heart! Thank you!

Still the best ever version of this book! I have been using your segment with its fabulous arrangement with kids adults, ( and even some Carolina Wrens in my neighborhood) for years! Thank you so much!!

My grandmother never had cable, so when I visited her, my brother cousin and I would watch PBS. This makes my 30 year old heart flutter
