This song It is also known as "Interlude”. Gillespie called the tune "Interlude" and said "some genius decided to call it 'Night in Tunisia'". He said the tune was composed at the piano at Kelly's Stables in New York.
Interlude. Twelve bar sequence. The complex bass line in the "A section" is notable for avoiding the standard walking bass pattern of straight quarter notes, and the use of oscillating half-step-up/half-step-down chord changes (using the Sub V) gives the song a unique, mysterious feeling. The B section is notable for having an unresolved minor II-V, since the chord progression of the B section is taken from the B section of the standard "Alone Together, " causing the V chord to lead back into the Sub V of the A section. Like many of Gillespie's tunes, it features a short written introduction and a brief interlude that occurs between solo sections - in this case, a twelve-bar sequence leading into a four-bar break for the next soloist.
Lyrics:
The moon is the same moon above you
A glow in its cool evening light
The stars are aglow in Tunisia
Never does it shine so bright
The cares of the days seem to vanish
The ending of day brings release
Each wonderful night in Tunisia
Where the nights are filled with peace.
The stars are aglow in heavens
But only the wise understand
That shining tonight in Tunisia
They guide you through descent sand
And words fail to tell a tale exoticto be taid
Each night's a deeper night in a worldages old
The cares of the world seem to vanish
The ending of day brings release
Each wonderful night in Tunisia
Where the nights are filled with peace.

Was an honor to perform with Jon Faddis, trumpet teacher and mentor!
2:34
My dudes, that is the legendary Jon Faddis on the trumpet...!
Latin jazz is an unlimited emotional experience. God bless all of them. The mambo is back !
A quick history of this song: “A Night in Tunisia” is one of the most famous jazz standards, composed in 1942 by Dizzy Gillespie. In the beginning, there was no mention at all of Tunisia in this song. It was named “Interlude », and its lyrics were completely different... But why Tunisia?
Magnificent interpretation of the Dizzy Gillespie classic. The trumpet player is killing it, and all the other players are boss!
This got recommended for me and i am not mad at all
Can't stop listening this set... Maybe one of the best nights in Tunisia ever played. Dizz should be proud... No doubt!
A NIGHT IN TUNISIA: COMPOSED BY THE INDELIBLE
Mr. Gove's great arrangement...!!
Lots of old friends from my years in the Bay Area in the band. Great playing and great chart. Also hello to Jon. Let's go get some Mexican food.
Pacific Mambo Orchestra; That band is 'SMOKIN'!!!!!!!!! YES; 'FUMANDO'!!!!!! I hope to hear the orchestra live as soon as they hit the Big Apple. The arrangement was well done and Jon Faddis hit those golden high notes in the spirit of the great Dizzy Gillespie. The percussionists were definitely 'on point' and the entire woodwind and brass sections were screaming; 'lets swing this'!!! A job that was definitely, 'well done'!!
Dafnis is one of a few drummers who can play with a Latin percussion section and enhance the music without covering up the parts of the percussionists.
I love this group plays A Night in Tunisia. I love Mambo music.
Now that is music. Mind sufficiently blown.
PACIFIC MAMBO: "A NIGHT IN
One of the best version I've ever heard of Gillespies theme. The PMO's sound is like a thunder and Mr. Faddis ... well he's Dizzy's son. So great!. Mr. Birks would be proud!.
All yoy guys are unbelievable!!!!... The most evolved version I've heard of that magic theme.... And the best background for the Dizzy's heritage with Mr. Faddis... Muy grande!!!
I still need to listen to this theme at least once at week... overnatural!.
Wow!!! Love this version of A Night In Tunisia!!!!!
