BR-KLASSIK - Jazztime

Zum 125. Geburtstag von Duke Ellington

Die ganze Welt des Jazz - Neue CDs, Live-Mitschnitte des BR, Festivalberichte, Musikerporträts, Interpretationen berühmter Jazz-Klassiker im Vergleich: ein Spektrum für neugierige Ohren.

Henning Sieverts präsentiert den Komponisten, Bigbandleader und Pianisten in Meisteraufnahmen aus drei Phasen seiner langen Karriere: Sein frühes Orchester im "Cotton Club" der 20er Jahre, das legendäre Bigband-Konzert beim Newport Jazz Festival im Sommer 1956 und den 73-jährigen Solopianisten Ellington bei einem Konzert 1972, knapp zwei Jahre vor seinem Tod (der sich am 24. Mai zum 50. Mal jährt).
