Description
This record is a personal retrospective of Ellington's music by one musician who has been deeply effected by the depth and imagination contained in the sounds and harmonies of these two prolific composers, Ellington and Strayhorn. Dan Block is a peerless reed player, arranger, composer, bandleader. A new CD captures his many imaginations whole. Every track has it's own sound and is respectfully inventive. This CD of his arrangements of Ellington tunes is a superb introduction to his gorgeous, breathy sax and his sweet clarinet sound as well as his lyrical style of playing. The 14 tracks form a glorious and very personal tribute to Ellington.
