Jazz

<p>Duke Ellington was an influential American jazz pianist, bandleader, and composer. He is known for his residency at the Cotton Club from 1927 to 1931 and for composing over a thousand pieces, many of which have become standards in the genre. He frequently collaborated with Billy Strayhorn. Duke Ellington's son, Mercer Ellington, took over leadership of his father's orchestra until his own death in 1996. He is also the grandfather of Edward Ellington.</p>

<p>Equally at home in the dance hall and the concert hall, nobody did more to make jazz a serious art form than Duke Ellington. He was one of the most important creative forces in the music of the twentieth century. His influence on classical music, popular music, and, of course, jazz, simply cannot be overstated. As Miles Davis once said: "Some day all the jazz musicians should get together in one place and get down on their knees and thank Duke.”</p>
