October 21, 1917 - d. January 6, 1993, was an American jazz trumpet player, bandleader, singer, and composer." Wynton Marsalis summed up Gillespie as a player and teacher:  His playing showcases the importance of intelligence. His rhythmic sophistication was unequaled. He was a master of harmony — and fascinated with studying it. He took in all the music of his youth, from Roy Eldridge to Duke Ellington and developed a unique style built on complex rhythm and harmony balanced by wit. Dizzy was so quick-minded, he could create an endless flow of ideas at unusually fast tempi. Nobody had ever even considered playing a trumpet that way, let alone had actually tried. All the musicians respected him because, in addition to outplaying everyone, he knew so much and was so generous with that knowledge..."
