Synopsis

Product Description
The Ellington Suites is a studio album by American pianist, composer and bandleader Duke Ellington which collects three suites recorded in 1959, 1971 & 1972 (originally released on the Pablo label in 1976). The album won a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Performance by a Big Band. Interesting fact: Ellington wrote The Queens Suite for Queen Elizabeth II, who was presented with a single pressing of the recording which was not commercially issued during Ellington s lifetime. This newly remastered edition features a previously unreleased bonus track; the only known recording of the Ellington composition The Kiss.
