Duke Ellington at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956

Here's a treat.  This is a short film, AND, the performance by Duke Ellington at the 1956 Newport Jazz Festival, where his saxophonist Paul Gonzalez plays 26 choruses in a solo on "Diminuendo and Crescendo In Blue".





...And so, here it is, ladies and gentlemen.  THE performance of "Diminuendo And Crescendo In Blue."
