Product Description

In this engaging and touching tribute, Barbara Hendricks emphasizes her admiration for Duke Ellington, the man and the artist. In serving this music she is enriching the legacy of the African-American people who have already contributed so much to 20th-century world culture. Ellington has long been fascinated by the great "operatic" voices, as their range and flexibility enabled him to express a universal musical ideal. How pleased he would be today to hear his music sung by one of those "sophisticated ladies" for whom it was primarily written. Barbara Hendricks could not be a better ambassador.
