I was at this concert in row 4. One of most exciting nights of my life. Dizzy lead from the front..........he was incredible. I came out the concert drunk from the music, with the knowledge that I would never witness anythng like this again. How right I have been. A night for the purists. God bless all the appeared that night and to you Henrique for posting this.
@@kesivan The Royal Festival Hall in London. In the 80's the JVC Jazz Festival was hosted there. I saw most of the greats. An amzing venue for listening to Jazz.
Ossie Huggins thanks for the info, was wondering if it was royal Albert or royal festival. But now that you clarified it’s all good. You very lucky to have seen this gig. I had the great honor of performing and being a student of Danilo Perez. All the best.
Do you remember the year? I took my daughter to hear the band. She was very young at the time. She was born in 1984. The thing about it, was that it was free! It was at our zoo. so we saw the animals, and then Dizzy! Maybe between '88 and '90.

Tuve la suerte de vivir este concierto en Santiago de Chile. Estuvo de invitado el mismísimo Wynton Marsalis. Cualquier palabra quedaría en la más total deuda si quisiera describir el derroche de virtuosismo que esta banda regaló. Gracias los músicos y a las personas que aprecian la buena música.
este concierto si está a otro nivel, cada uno de los músicos en ese concierto es casi una deidad en su genero o su instrumento, algo simplemente maravilloso e histórico, algo realmente sublime e irrepetible.
Las nuevas generaciones de musicos deberian de tomar como ejemplo la dedicacion y el PROFESIONALISMO de estos musicos y seguir sus pasos,que gracias a su dedicacion han ofrecido a traves de su carrera lo mejor de ellos.Han pasado muchos anos de este concierto y esta tan vigente como hoy y darle las gracias la senor DIZZY GILLESPIE que gracias a el se abrieron muchas puertas a esta generacion de musicos CUBANOS,gracias. Son los mejores.FELICIDADES.

So bummed it was taken off streaming service (after I lost my CD). 😮 Glad to find this here. I have listened to this from start to finish more times than I can count. Best concert ever recorded.
Never tired watching this amazing performance of this legendary band. How extraordinary each musician is listening and make it all together such a memorable concert. Thanks to Dizzy to put this together...this is top of the line.
I saw a version of this group in Cleveland at the Zoo amphitheater of all places! Sunday afternoon. If you paid to get into the zoo the concert was free. What a great show. He had Sam Rivers on saxophone that day along with James Moody and Slide Hampton. Just a wonderful experience. We went early and sat in the front row during the sound check and tried to talk to Dizzy. He was very nice but wouldn't engage with us until he started playing.
THE conga guy is THE BEST conga PLAYER IN THE WORLD MR GIOVANNI HIDALGO PERCUSSION VIRTUOSO FROM THE ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO IN THE CARRIBBEAN 🥁🥁🥁🥁🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎼🎼🎸🎸🎷🎺🎺👍
From time to time, I return to this pure gem. No better live thing hangs around anywhere. If you ever need to use the expression "Dream Team", go no further than this.
I think this concert has the best drum solos I have ever heard. The drummers make something of huge technical skill seem as effortless as blinking. Lovely warm audience too.
Verdaderas estrellas en el ambito del latin jazz. Arturo Sandoval, Paquito de Rivera, Giovanni Hidalgo, Mario Rivera, steave Turre, Danilo Perez, Claudio Roditi, Ignacio Berroa. Entre otros comandado por el genio Dizzy Gillespie.
STEVE TURRIE FROM SNL AND I DON'T KNOW THE CAT ON GUITAR? I'D LOVE TO KNOW. MARIO RIVERA WAS MY FLUTE TEACHER. I KNOW MOST OF THESE CATS. PAQUITO I MET BASICALLY RIGHT OFF OF THE BOAT. AWESOME PEOPLE (GENIUSES), ALL OF THEM.
paquito and arturo v been so amazing, incredible performance, paquito first 20 min hero of the show, idk how its possible to be so focused and still perform like that for such period
one of the best videos ever uploaded on this platform 1991 united nations orchestra London, royal festival hall lead by THE Dizzy Gillespie and managed by THE Charles Fishman… can’t get better than this ❤.
Extraordinary! I've been soaking this up for weeks now, I wish I'd had youtube during my 16 years in England - I would have had the antidote to EVERYTHING ELSE around me.
Me sinto tambem muito constrangido quanto ouco e vejo esse Dvd nao existia nem yutubi na epoca e muito intenso a musica estava no ar essa noite neste teatro fico imaginando quem estava la neste dia se eu que apenas nao esqueco do video e os Artista cada um com sua personalidade liderada pelo mestre Dizzy que conseguiu essa proeza e Dom de descobrir toda essa constelacao de Estrelas da Arte da musica Universal e sempre um deleite para alma o espirito e corpo obrigado por postar esse material aue ja ficou pra posteridade so me resta curtir mais uma vez em 2022 e aplaudir 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Em ocasiões, meu imenso constrangimento por pertencer à espécie humana é momentaneamente obliterado, quando por exemplo, eu ouço a música de Arturo Sandoval, Dizzy Gillespie e outros gênios do jazz...
2-28-19 @ 1122 hrs. Wunce upon a time in the 1960's while we were hitchhiking, Bob Blais and I showed a guy The Invisible Indian Rope Trick, but he didn't see the humor in it. Then in the 1970's, we and our Wives went to a Dizzie Gillespie show in New York City.
