"Yardbird Suite" is a bebop standard composed by jazz saxophonist Charlie Parker in 1946. In Edmonton you'll find a well-known jazz club by the same name.
Operating since 1984, it is one of Canada's oldest jazz clubs. Several live albums have been recorded at the club.
Operated entirely by volunteers, The Yardbird Suite, is the only facility of its kind in Canada. Every weekend between the middle of September and the end of June (with the break for the New Year) a new jazz experience unfolds in the Suite's casual and intimate atmosphere. In addition to average 75 concerts per performance season, the Yardbird currently hosts weekly Tuesday Night Sessions, sponsors the Littlebirds Big Band, presents Jazz For Kids events, and provides concert space to other organizations.
