Descriere magazin:
In this insightful new volume,
Jack Chambers explores Edward Kennedy
Duke Ellington\'s music thematically, collating motifs, memes, and predilections that caught
Ellington\'s attention and inspired his restless muse. In presenting
Ellington\'s work in this manner,
Chambers situates the music in the context in which it was created--historical, political, musical, biographical, and personal.
Chambers offers a novel kind of access to the man and the music. Ellington\'s music presents a daunting task for listeners because of its sheer volume. The numbers defy credulity. Ellington (1899-1974) wrote more than two thousand compositions in numerous genres, including pop songs, big band swing, revues, hymns, tone poems, soundtracks, suites, ballets, concertos, and symphonies. Where to start? The themes in this book offer natural entry points. They provide the context in which the music came into being, with enough biography to satisfy music lovers, even those who come to the book knowing very little about Ellington\'s life. Each chapter features its own playlist as a guide to the music discussed, and, in some cases, fuller listings in case readers might want to pursue a topic further. In the early chapters, Chambers covers topics that occupied Ellington through much of his career, and in later chapters he covers more specific themes, some of them from Ellington\'s last decades, which are less well studied. The music, Ellington said, is his continuing autobiography, and it reveals the man behind it.
