Duke Ellington had the talent to incorporate the simplicity of the blues and the emotion of the gospel in sophisticated musical themes. That unique style speaking fans around the world. From the twenties to the seventies he worked on an oeuvre that is one of the greatest contributions to American music. Pianist, composer and bandleader Ellington was incredibly diverse: from solo to orchestral recordings, short novelty songs' extensive symphonies and sacred to secular music. Or, as Miles Davis once said: "All musicians have once in their lives on their bare knees to Duke Ellington to thank."
