It was a good week on my favourite jazz programme last week. Each of the five Open Jazz broadcasts was entirely given over to recordings that Duke Ellington made for Columbia Records between 1951 and 1961. I particularly enjoyed the hour in which his Shakespeare inspired compositions featured.
The music played was from the umpteen LPs Ellington produced which are now available on two CD box sets. The
obvious tunes are there, some in various versions, as well as lesser
known pieces.
All these programmes as well as many more are available on the Open Jazz website. In contrast to the BBC which gives you 30 days to listen to a broadcast after it has gone out Radio France gives you nearly three years so there's no rush.
