The Carnegie Hall Concerts (January 1943) by Duke Ellington & His Orchestra on CD This two-CD set captures one of the milestones in Duke Ellington's long and extremely productive career, highlighted by his monumental suite "Black, Brown and Beige" in the only full-length version ever recorded by his orchestra; soon it was only performed as excerpts. In addition, Ellington's all-star orchestra (including such stylists as trumpeters Rex Stewart, Ray Nance, and Shorty Baker; trombonists Tricky Sam...

The second in this nine-LP series of transcriptions documents the 1943 Duke Ellington Orchestra shortly after tenor star Ben Webster had departed, but the band had so many talented soloists that he was barely missed. Volume Two is one of the strongest in this collector's program, containing nine selections (in addition to alternate takes and false starts) that are highlighted by features for Johny Hodges and Ray Nance.

This mid-priced triple-CD box (originally five separate LPs) contains 64 tracks recorded by Ellington and his band for radio broadcast between March 28, 1946 and June 10, 1947. This was a period in which the Ellington band was, if anything, underrecorded; he'd ended his longtime stay on RCA-Victor and was moving to Musicraft and then on to Columbia, and the move between labels left Ellington less well represented in the studio than he might otherwise have been with a long-term contract. Included...

Description: Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington, "King of the Keys," was born on April 29, 1899, in Washington, D.C. "He was a smooth-talkin', slick-steppin', piano-playin' kid," writes master wordsmith Andrea Pinkney in the rhythmic, fluid, swinging prose of this excellent biography for early readers. It was ragtime music that first "set Duke's fingers to wiggling." He got back to work and taught himself to "press on the pearlies." Soon 19-year-old Duke was playing compositions "smoother than a hairdo...

Level 3. Four Ellington hits - Don't Get Around Much Anymore, Do Nothin' 'Till You Hear from Me, Sophisticated Lady, and It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) - are given special treatment in this monster medley. Full instrumentation is required, and the arrangement is moderately advanced, but the result is great music!

In 1974 the inimitable, irreplaceable Duke Ellington died. This tribute led by his son, Mercer, followed shortly thereafter and features many veterans of Ellington's greatest compositional instrument, his orchestra. Saxophonist Harry Carney takes a fine solo on "Drop Me Off in Harlem"; other favorites include "All Too Soon," "Jeep's Blues," "Blue Serge," "Harlem Air Shaft," "Black and Tan Fantasy," and "Jump for Joy."

Please note that a medley is a combined arrangement of the songs listed, and does not include each song in full. M44 Product Code: 25056S-D Publisher Product Code: 00-25056S UPC Code: 038081280905 Category: Alfred Publishing Series: Full Orchestra Divis...

Turn your orchestra into a big band for the night with Duke Ellington's swing classics. The loping bass line, the sinewy horn parts, and the intricate harmonies of “Echoes of Harlem” are translated into an artful arrangement for string orchestra. The warm, chocolaty tones of the viola really shine in this piece. In this delightful rendition of “I'm Just a Lucky So and So,” the violist plays the saxophone and trombone parts while the second violinist sings. The lighthearted song has been recorded...

Hindsight has released five excellent LPs of radio transcriptions by Duke Ellington from 1946-47, one of his most underrated periods.
