Fantastic performance footage of one of Jazz's greatest stars - Duke Ellington. With performances of song of his most famous songs including "Mood Indigo", "Caravan" & "Sophisticated Lady"
Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington was an American composer, pianist, and big-band leader. Ellington wrote over 1,000 compositions. A major figure in the history of jazz, Ellington's music stretched into various other genres. His career spanned more than 50 years and included leading his orchestra, composing an inexhaustible songbook, scoring for movies, composing stage musicals, and world tours. Several of his instrumental works were adapted into songs that became standards. Due to his inventive use of the orchestra, or big band, and thanks to his eloquence and extraordinary charisma, he is generally considered to have elevated the perception of jazz to an art form on a par with other traditional genres of music. His reputation increased after his death and the Pulitzer Prize Board bestowed on him a special posthumous honor in 1999.
Ellington called his music "American Music" rather than jazz, and liked to describe those who impressed him as "beyond category."

From www.allmusic.com:
This set documents a historic occasion. Although Coleman Hawkins had been an admirer of Duke Ellington's music for at least 35 years at this point and Ellington had suggested they record together at least 20 years prior to their actual meeting in 1962, this was their first (and only) meeting on record. Although it would have been preferable to hear the great tenor performing with the full orchestra, his meeting with Ellington and an all-star group taken out of the big band does feature such greats as Ray Nance on cornet and violin, trombonist Lawrence Brown, altoist Johnny Hodges, and baritonist Harry Carney. High points include an exuberant "The Jeep Is Jumpin'," an interesting remake of "Mood Indigo," and a few new Ellington pieces. This delightful music is recommended in one form or another.
Tracklist:
1- Limbo Jazz
2- Mood Indigo
3- Ray Charle's Place
4- Wanderlust
5- You Dirty Dog
6- Self-Portrait (Of The Bean)

Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington (April 29, 1899 – May 24, 1974) was an American composer, pianist and bandleader of jazz orchestras. He led his orchestra from 1923 until his death, his career spanning over 50 years.
Born in Washington, D.C., Ellington was based in New York City from the mid-1920s onward, and gained a national profile through his orchestra's appearances at the Cotton Club in Harlem. In the 1930s, his orchestra toured in Europe. Though widely considered to have been a pivotal figure in the history of jazz, Ellington embraced the phrase "beyond category" as a liberating principle, and referred to his music as part of the more general category of American Music, rather than to a musical genre such as jazz.

In the early 1960's the Goodyear Tire Company commisioned 5 short jazz films. The programs were originally filmed in 35 mm negative. The sound was recorded in professional stereo. Presenting the band in full vigor.
Over the years, the prints faded to pink, because of an unstable color print stock. What was once an extremely professional, good looking endavour, now looked like the most out of date historic relic.
In the late 80s Storyville Films polished and remastered the original source material and sync'ed music to the images.
Finally these films were back to their intended quality and now stand as some of the most technically advanced of jazz films of the early 60s.
This clip was recorded in NYC, January 9, 1962
The players of the orchestra in these clips are:
Trumpet: Ray Nance, Shorty Baker, Cat Anderson, Bill Berry, Ed Mullens
Trombone: Lawrence Brown, Leon Cox, Chuck Conners
Alto-saxophone: Russell Procope, Johnny Hodges
Tenor-saxophone: Paul Gonsalves
Clarinet (and tenor-saxophone): Jimmy Hamilton
Baritone-saxophone: Harry Carney
Piano: Duke Ellington

Ellington At Newport 1956 Often regarded as the best performance of his career, in 1956, Duke Ellington and his band recorded their historic concert at the Newport Jazz Festival, revitalizing Ellington's waning career. Jazz promoter George Wein describes the 1956 concert as "the greatest performance of Ellington's career... It stood for everything that jazz had been and could be." Ellington had lately been connecting the songs "Diminuendo in Blue" and "Crescendo in Blue" in a medley via a tenor solo from saxophonist Paul Gonsalves. At Newport, Gonsalves summoned a 27-chorus workout so inspired and transcendent that the audience was practically rioting by the time he had finished. Orchestra and audience both remained at a fever pitch for the rest of the show (vividly captured on the live album Ellington at Newport),

Nato il 29 aprile 1899, Duke Ellington è stato una delle figure più influenti e popolari del jazz e della musica americana in generale. Come artista ha influenzato milioni di persone in patria e nel mondo. È stato uno dei più prolifici compositori americani del XX secolo. La sua carriera, che attraversa più di 50 anni, l'ha visto dirigere la sua mitica orchestra, vera e propria fucina di straordinari talenti e comporre un inesauribile canzoniere, che include innumerevoli capolavori e colonne sonore per film e musical. Leggenda del Cotton Club di Harlem, Ellington in 50 anni si è esibito in oltre ventimila concerti, dall'America all'Europa, dal Medio Oriente all'Asia. The "Duke" ha diretto la sua orchestra dal 1923 fino al giorno della sua morte, il 24 maggio 1974, all'età di 75 anni. Da allora la formazione ha continuato ad esibirsi diretta prima dal figlio Mercer (fino al 1996), poi dal figlio di costui, Paul Mercer. Sotto la direzione del pianista Tommy James e composta da un parterre di musicisti eccezionali (come Mark Gross al sax, James Zollar alla tromba, David Gibson alla batteria o Hassan Ash-Shakur al basso), la formazione continua oggi, dopo 91 anni di ininterrotta attività, a suonare e promuovere la musica di Ellington in tutto il mondo.
Born April 29, 1899, Duke Ellington was one of the most popular and influential figures of jazz and American music in general. As an artist he has influenced millions of people around the world and in his homeland. He was one of the most prolific American composers of the twentieth century. His career, spanning over 50 years, has seen him direct his legendary orchestra, a veritable breeding ground for extraordinary talent, as well as compose an inexhaustible songbook, which includes countless masterpieces and soundtracks for movies and musicals. Legend of the Cotton Club in Harlem, Ellington in 50 years has performed in over twenty thousand concerts, from America to Europe, from the Middle East to Asia. The "Duke" directed his orchestra from 1923 until the day of his death, March 24, 1974, at the age of 75.Since then the ensemble continued to perform under the lead of his son Mercer (until 1996), and later under Mercer's son, Paul Mercer. Until this day, under the direction of the pianist Tommy James and composed of a parterre of exceptional musicians (such as Mark Gross at the sax, James Zollar at the trumpet, David Gibson at the percussion or Hassan Ash-Shakur at the bass) the ensemble continues, after 91 years of uninterrupted activity, to play and promote worldwide the music of Ellington.

This is a portion of a documentary project I produced while a grad student at UCLA back around 1974 called "Reminiscing In Tempo". I was fortunate to interview many of the great musicians who had played with Duke Ellington's band over the years, among them the great drummer Louie Bellson. The interview segment is followed by a small group version of "Cottontail" featuring Duke Ellington on piano, Joe Pass on guitar, Ray Brown on bass, and Louie Bellson on drums.
