The African-American bandleader, pianist, and composer Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington (1899–1974) was one of the most influential figures in the world of jazz and American music. He received the nickname "Duke" from his childhood friends, owing to his elegant style of dress and aristocratic manner. Duke Ellington's impact cannot be overestimated. He has been credited with nearly 1,000 compositions.  Ellington first took an interest in religious music in the 1960s. This part of his career began in 1963 when he wrote an oratorio-like composition featuring intimate religious songs at the request of an African-American cultural festival in Chicago. After 1965, he composed another three of these church pieces in which the vocal and instrumental soloists were accompanied by dancers. In his book Duke, Derek Jewell wrote that in the Sacred Concerts, "jazz is incorporated with elements of European religious choral music... Duke decided to create his own songs in praise of God, who was very important to him."

Our offer


The guest appearance of the world-famous American maestro Lawrence Foster, who represents the senior age group of the international community of composers, promises to be among the outstanding events of the season. The musician with Romanian parents has conducted the Hungarian National Philharmonic on several occasions and each visit has attracted an enthusiastic response.
