Duke Ellington is widely held to be the greatest jazz composer and
one of the most significant cultural icons of the twentieth
century. This comprehensive and accessible Companion is the first
collection of essays to survey, in-depth, Ellington's career,
music, and place in popular culture. An international cast of
authors includes renowned scholars, critics, composers, and jazz
musicians. Organized in three parts, the Companion first sets
Ellington's life and work in context, providing new information
about his formative years, method of composing, interactions with
other musicians, and activities abroad; its second part gives a
complete artistic biography of Ellington; and the final section is
a series of specific musical studies, including chapters on
Ellington and song-writing, the jazz piano, descriptive music, and
the blues. Featuring a chronology of the composer's life and major
recordings, this book is essential reading for anyone with an
interest in Ellington's enduring artistic legacy.
