Google Doodle - Dizzy Gillespie


Google Doodles are the drawings that are designed on, around and through the Google logo on Google's home page. They commemorate special dates or events.

We love special Google Doodles and recently we’re given a special treat from the search giant which is celebrating the 93rd anniversary of Dizzy Gillespie, one of the most famous jazz trumpet players of all time.

John Birks Gillesbie was born on October 21st, 1917 and besides being a jazz trumpet player, he was also a singer, band-leader, and composer. Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie were the most important figures in the development of “modern jazz and bebop.”

Dizzy Gillespie is regarded by most jazz fans and critics as the best jazz trumpet players that ever lived on this planet. Dizzy was the mentor of lots of musicians of that time as he taught trumpet players like Arturo Sandoval, Miles Davis, Jon Faddis, and many others.
