'Duke Ellington was hailed as the "King of the Keys." This is a most fitting tribute to a great man who proudly celebrated the history of African-Americans from slavery to civil rights struggles.
Jazz--energetic, scintillating, exhilarating, poignant--a music of deep emotion and high energy. Andrea Davis Pinkney's evocative language, paired with the Duke's toe-tapping swing, will have kids up and dancing during Forest Whitaker's reading of the Caldecott Honor Book and Coretta Scott King Award winner. More than a biography of the King of the Keys, DUKE ELLINGTON is an introduction to swing and its place in the history of jazz music. T.B. (c) AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine
