About

Named after the title of Dizzy Gillespie’s famous memoir, To Be or Not to Bop, this program will transform Woodmere into the landmark jazz club Birdland for one night of jamming. Saxophonist Julian Pressley and trumpeter Tony Smith bring the bebop styles of Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie “Bird” Parker to life.
