Description

Here is a RARE poster featuring jazz icon Duke Ellington! It was created for an event at UC Berkeley, which occurred over a weekend in late September 1969. As is stated in the upper left corner, it was a "symposium and concert celebrating the work of this musical genius, with major focus on compositions related to the life and culture of black Americans". Ellington has been celebrated in the jazz world for his inventive use of his orchestra and for his eloquence & charisma. His reputation has continued to rise even after he died in 1974. He was awarded a posthumous Pulitzer Prize Special Award for music in 1999.
