Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington & Billy Strayhorn. Inspired by directions to Ellington's home in Harlem, Strayhorn composed Ellington's most noteable tune: "Take the A Train" |
|
|
Don Ellis & his 4 valve trumpet. The 4th valve let him play quarter tones. They sound odd to westerners, but in Indian music, they are quite common. Listen to his tune "33 222 1 222". It's written in 19/8 time and it swings hard. |
