Monday January 25th, 2010 with Bill Krause
Tribute to Ellington and Strayhorn II
Ellington was one of the giants of jazz whose works are revered as great American music. Billy Strayhorn was his shy and polite alter ego whose musical style meshed perfectly with the Duke, like musical notes from the same instrument.
