Info

Sacred Concert by Duke Ellington is one of the following realisations: 1965 - Concert of Sacred Music. 1968 - Second Sacred Concert. 1973 - Third Sacred Concert. Ellington called these concerts the most important thing I have ever done. He said many times that he was not trying to compose a Mass liturgy. The critic Gary Giddins has characterized these concerts as Ellington bringing the Cotton Club revue to the church. Duke Ellington's Introduction. Ain't Nobody Nowhere Nothin' Without God. The Majesty Of God. Компании и т. Duke Ellington and His Orchestra: Mercer Ellington, Harold Johnson, Johnny Coles, Barrie Lee Hall, tp. Recorded in performance at Westminster Abbey, London UK, October 24, 1973. It lacks the show biz kick and exuberance of the first concert and the even more eclectic impulses of the second, now burdened with a subdued solemnity and the sense that the ailing Ellington knew his time was drawing to a close he would be dead exactly six months later. Ain't Nobody Nowhere Nothin' Without God has some of the old Ellington sass and verve and The Majesty of God has its passages of serenely assured swing. Duke Ellington's Concert of Sacred Music.
