Multicolored Ellington

Duke Orchestra brings one of the greatest jazz musicians of the history.

Throughout his long career, Duke Ellington left his mark on the 20th century, building his work around the values ​​of openness, respect, love, tolerance, benevolence and of course fraternity. Mixing the spirit of the blues with the most refined orchestral invention, the Duke has always defended the idea of ​​an art for all, universal, delivering an original and timeless language, built on imagination, intelligence and sound aesthetics, beyond styles, eras and borders.

Made up of a very fine line-up of soloists, the Duke Orchestra guides the audience into Ellingtonian lands on a breathtaking journey and takes them into a whirlwind of energy and contrasts. Laurent Mignard has meticulously transcribed the repertoire from the original recordings in search of the perfect balance of timbres and impeccable swing. The Duke Orchestra is undoubtedly a great reference in jazz.
