Ellingtonia: The Recorded Music of Duke Ellington and His Sidemen (Studies in Jazz)

Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington, one of the great composers and orchestra leaders of the twentieth century, remained musically active through his entire life, making it difficult to catalog his musical output completely. This completely revised and updated fourth edition of Ellingtonia indexes the recorded music of Ellington and his sidemen and includes studio recordings, soundtracks, concerts, radio broadcasts, and private recordings, as well as recordings made by his sidemen with other bands and under their own names. This revised work also lists a vast amount of new material including the so-called "stockpile recordings" released since the previous edition. Ellingtonia contains an easy to use guide for readers; a list of orchestras; keys for personnel, labels and abbreviations, indexes, and an attendance chart. Essential for jazz researchers, scholars, and collectors.

Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington (1899-1974) is recognized as one of the great composers and orchestra leaders of the twentieth century and is credited for raising jazz to its highest plateau. He remained musically active through his entire life, creating a prolific musical output. Ellingtonia: The Recorded Music of Duke Ellington and His Sidemen compiles Ellington's entire musical catalog from the first recording session in July 1923 to the last concert in March 1974. More than a discography, the book comprises all the activities of these musicians, including studio recordings, movie soundtracks, concerts, dance dates, radio broadcasts, telecasts, and private and unissued recordings, as well as recordings made by Ellington's sidemen under their own names or with other bands. W. E. Timner provides the date, location and personnel for each session, the label of first issue, master and take numbers (if available), and song title, including alternate titles and derivatives. Containing a comprehensive guide for users and indexes of titles, musicians, cities, venues, and general subjects, this completely revised and updated 5th edition also contains a new section listing Ellington's radio broadcasts and telecasts. Complete with extensive footnotes, Ellingtonia remains an indispensable and easy to use reference source for Jazz collectors and scholars.
