ELI1NGTh« announcement that tha 1985 Duka Elington Confaranca wil ba held

in May at Birch Hal, Oldham, haa produced an amazing and encouragingreeponte. Enquiries hava baan raoaivad from placaa aa tar afWd aa Australiaand tha Soviet Union, as weil as from an over Europs and North America.

Now the Conference is vary proud to announce the signing of darinatvirtuoeo Jimmy Hamilton, cornerstone of the great Elington teed section.Hemlton is one of the finest of el )azi clarinettists and was a star Elingtonianfor twenty five years. His appearance adds a new dimension to 'Elington ■96-music as wel as to tha panel of ax-Blingtonlsns who wil share theirramMeoences with us.

Following Bob WHbet's triumph as musical director of the much talkedabout film 'Tha Cotton Club*, he was delighted to take on the challenge oforganising the three 'Elington '86* concerts. Thass wM cover tha whole fiftyyear panorama of Elingtonia - from tha Cotton Club days of tha twenties toths music of tha sixties and sevenfias. Bob WUber is respected as one of theleading musicians in ths world today and no other musician la needy so welequipped to taka on the dual role of director/performer of Duke Elington’smusic.

Much excitement was created by ths announcement that trumpeter WillieCook would be another Conference star. Cook's career with Elington coveredthree decades and his work was as greatly admired by his fellow professionalsas H was by discerning members of the Jazz public. And ha is playing aa weltoday as he was in his years with the Duka.

A guest of honour at the Conference wN be star Swedish soprano AliceBate, who waa doaaly aaaodatod with Bfrtgton'a music prior to herretirement. She worked regularly with Duka Elington on his Sacred Concertsand recorded with him frequently In the sixties and aeventiss.

In add-on to the filma, lectures and penal discussions already announced,arrangements have been made to present tapes from a previously unknownootteetion of Elington recordbtgs. This indudas many compositions which wOba heard for tha first time In public. The 1980 Elington Orchestra wM be heardIn He-tike quadrophonic sound and the 1930s band on newly discoveredstereophonic discs. The story of the discovery of these discs wM be told at theConference and ws wil hear for the first time ever stereo recording from 1932- a quarter of a century before any previously known stereophonic recordingsof Jazz music.

The 1985 Duke Ellington Conference will be a unique gathering which willoffer the opportunity to meet and talk with Ellington musicians, scholars,discographers and collectors. Overall it promises to be the most absorbing andentertaining jazz event ever staged in Great Britain.

Lata in 1969, whan tha Ellington Era, under the di¬rection of the Master hlmaalf, had nearly run itsIllustrious course, ana of the old guard, altoist andclarinettist RUSSELL PROCOPE delivered to posteritywhat constitutes, to my heart and ear, 50 bars of themost sublime and moving clarinet blues ever to be cap¬tured from a live performance. These seem to possessall the qualities essential to the best in Jazz; re¬laxed, melodic construction; absence of even thefaintest suspicion of anarchy — ftjssell'a choice ofnotes closely follows the harmonies of the simplest of12-bar blues sequences; the tone warm, woody, sonorous,enhanced by a beautifully—controlled vibrato; nostriving for theatrical effect -- never climbing outof the lower-to-middle register. On the face thereseem to be a lot of notes, but how they swing! And, on

reflection, no superfluities, never disturbing the un¬derlying pulse of the music, tha steady heart-beat ofJazz, exemplifying the true meaning and application ofsyncopated rhythmic re-arrangement. In the completeperformance, Russell Procope's tour-de-force is pre¬ceded by a really beautiful 12-bar piano/bass intro¬duction from Duke himself and Victor Gaskin, followedby a statement of tha ana thema of the piece, darklyscored for 3 low-register clarinets. Then ProcopB'sbeautiful solo takes over for the reminder of the per¬formance. there is so much an offer here that thesecond half of hia masterpiece must nesds be held overuntil the next Bulletin.Transcribed from 2-LP Sat, ’Duke Ellington's BirthdayConcert".
