Abstract |
From the Ralph J. Gleason archives come two Duke Ellington programs, "Love You Madly" and "A Concert of Sacred Music At Grace Cathedral." Both Emmy-nominated programs represent a significant piece of Ellington history. "Love You Madly" is a behind-the-scenes profile of Ellington including performances and interviews with the legendary band-leader. The performance footage was recorded in a number of places, from The Basin St. West Jazz Club, the 1965 Monterey Jazz Festival, and his first Concert of Sacred Music at Grace Cathedral. "A Concert of Sacred Music At Grace Cathedral" was filmed on location at the premier performance on September 16, 1965, the first of what would be three Concerts of Sacred Music composed by Ellington between 1965 and 1973. These pieces combined classical, jazz, spirituals, gospel, blues music and dance and were performed in churches and cathedrals around the world. This Concert of Sacred Music was commissioned by the Dean of Grace Cathedral as part of a year-long celebration for the completion and consecration of the Cathedral. |
