Julian Joseph Plays Duke Ellington's Nutcracker at Cedars Hall

About

An album by American pianist, composer and bandleader Duke Ellington, recorded for the Columbia label in 1960, featured jazz interpretations of The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky, arranged by Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. Who else could have come up with Toot Toot Tootie Toot (Dance of the Reed-Pipes), Peanut Brittle Brigade (March) and Sugar Rum Cherry (Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy).
