Duke Ellington looms large as one of the most important composers, bandleaders and pianists of the 20th century. Experience the timeless genius of Ellington’s music, brilliantly reimagined by pianist Jason Moran, in this extraordinary celebration of the composer’s enduring legacy, 125 years after his birth. Guided by the composer’s great canon, Moran takes a solo piano climb up “Mount Ellington” and then he’s joined by the big band from his storied alma mater, Kinder High School for the Visual and Performing Arts.
