Duke Ellington Albums
Collection 1927-2015

Edward Kennedy (Duke) Ellington (Washington D.C., 29 april 
1899 - New York, 24 mei 1974) was een Amerikaans jazzpia-
nist, orkestleider en componist. Duke Ellington was een veelzij-
dig jazzcomponist wiens invloed op de muziek tussen de jaren 
twintig en de jaren zestig van de 20e eeuw niet gering was. Hij 
wordt tot de grootste Amerikaanse componisten gerekend. Zijn 
grote successen waren Take the A Train, Satin Doll, Rockin' in 
Rhythm, Mood Indigo, Caravan en Sophisticated Lady. In jaren 
20 en de jaren 30 werkte hij veel samen met Irving Mills, vanaf 
1930 het meest met Billy Strayhorn. Veel van zijn composities 
waren speciaal op bepaalde musici van zijn orkest toegeschre-
ven: Johnny Hodges, Bubber Miley, Cootie Williams, Joe „Tricky 
Sam“ Nanton, Barney Bigard, Ben Webster, Harry Carney, Sonny 
Greer, Otto Hardwick en Wellman Braud. Een van de bekendste 
van deze stukken is Concerto for Cootie (1940). Sommige musi-
ci uit zijn band bereikten zelf sterstatus zoals Jimmy Blanton en 
Ben Webster. Ellington schreef ook filmmuziek voor Black and 
Tan Fantasy (1929), Anatomy of a Murder (1959) en Paris Blues 
(1961) (met de acteurs Paul Newman en Sidney Poitier als jazz-
musici). Er zijn honderden albums opgedragen aan de muziek 
van Duke Ellington en Billy Strayhorn door beroemde en minder 
beroemde artiesten. De meer bekende zijn onder andere Sonny 
Stitt, Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, Tony Bennett, Claude 
Bolling, Oscar Peterson, Toshiko Akiyoshi, Dick Hyman, Joe Pass, 
Joe Jackson, Milt Jackson, Earl Hines, André Previn, World Saxo-
phone Quartet, Ben Webster, Zoot Sims, Kenny Burrell, Lambert, 
Hendricks and Ross, Martial Solal, Clark Terry and Randy Weston.
