Ellington at Newport
''Ellington at Newport'' is a 1956 live jazz album by Duke Ellington and his band of their 1956 concert at the Newport Jazz Festival, a concert which revitalized Ellington's flagging career. Jazz promoter George Wein describes the 1956 concert as "the greatest performance of () career... It stood for everything that jazz had been and could be.". It is included in the book ''1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die'', which ranks it "one of the most famous... in jazz history".〔Dimery, Robert '1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die' (2008 edition)Page 30〕 The original release partly recreated in the studio the Ellington Orchestra's festival appearance
==Context==
Many big bands had folded completely by the mid-1950s, but Duke had kept his band working, occasionally doing shows in ice-skating rinks to stay busy. The Duke Ellington Orchestra had done some European tours during the early 1950s, and Duke was chiefly supporting the band himself through royalties earned on his popular compositions of the 1920s to 1940s. At the time of the festival, the band did not even have a record deal.〔
