About this listen
Duke Ellington didn’t just compose music — he built an entire universe of tone, color, and swing. Bandleader, pianist, visionary, Ellington elevated jazz into an art form worthy of the concert hall without ever losing its pulse. In this episode, we trace his journey from the Cotton Club to Carnegie Hall, unpacking the elegance, ambition, and quiet rebellion of a man who always insisted on doing it his way — with class, and with a cigarette in hand.
