This Weekend the Annual Duke Ellington Concert – Savannah, Georgia

by

Featuring The Savannah Jazz Orchestra w/Sam Skelton
The Coastal Jazz Association presents a tribute to Duke Ellington on Sunday, April 27, 2008 which will feature special guest saxophonist, Sam Skelton .  As a woodwind doubler, Mr. Skelton is well versed in any genre of music. His grasp of saxophone, clarinet and flute has enabled him to remain very busy in live performance as well as in the studio.

This event will be celebrating the legacy left by one of America’s greatest musicians/composers for what would have been his 109th birthday (born April 29, 1899).

Every year The Savannah Jazz Orchestra, under the co-leadership of Teddy Adams and Randy Reese, features both unfamiliar compositions and special guest artists as a part of enhancing the genius of every Ellington concert.
