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.

Far East Suite&nbsp;is a 1967 concept album by American jazz musi- cian Duke Ellington, inspired by his group’s tour through Asia. Ellington and longtime collaborator Billy Strayhorn wrote the compositions. Strayhorn died in May 1967, making&nbsp;Far East Suite&nbsp;one of the last albums recorded during his life to feature his compositions.
