Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn
The artistic collaboration between Duke Ellington and composer/ arranger Billy Strayhorn is one of the most important in the history of American music. Duke Ellington trusted Billy Strayhorn’s artistic gifts from the moment he joined the band in 1939, until Strayhorn’s death in 1967. Strayhorn wrote many of the songs we associate with the Duke Ellington Band today, including their theme song “Take the A Train”, “Satin Doll”, “Something to Live For” and many more.
For non-classical, non-Family concerts, only children ages two years and older will be allowed into the concert hall. These children must have a ticket and be able to sit in an un-accompanied seat.
