On June 14th, 2020, my dad Charles Sibirsky and I set up a piano outside the Brooklyn’s SLOPE MUSIC and played for passersby, for the second time during the Covid-19 Pandemic. This time we were joined by Lena Bloch on tenor saxophone and played as a Black Lives Matter / Justice for George protest passed by the music school.
“Now’s the Time” is an original composition of Charlie Parker. First recorded on November 26, 1945, by Charlie Parker’s Beboppers: Parker (alto sax), Miles Davis (trumpet), Dizzy Gillespie or Sadik Hakim (piano), Curley Russell (bass), and Max Roach (drums).
The performance was dedicated to #EssentialWorkers #FrontLineWorkers and #JusticeForGeorge. During this time of frustration protests around the world were calling for justice for the murder of George Floyd by (former) Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin.
As fate would have it, a protest came down 9th Street, passing right in front of us. My dad started playing “Now’s the Time” by Charlie Parker (quite appropriate!) while I went into the street to show support for the protest.
Several protestors came over to the yard to take pictures and footage of the music, just as I was taking footage of the protest, before rejoining Lena and pop, with my flute, to finish the song. Some said it was like we were serenading the protesters, adding a soundtrack to the movement. We hadn’t known they were coming, so it wasn’t planned, but we definitely shared a cosmic energy for a brief moment in time.
