Act I takes us from Ellington's early days at The Cotton Club through his widening acceptance abroad, while Act II explores the private man as captured in his music. Numbers include “It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing", "Take the 'A' Train", “Don’t Get Around Much Anymore”, "Satin Doll” and the haunting "In a Sentimental Mood". It's a high-stepping salute inspired by the glamorous nightlife and sensuous highlife of a man who lived to love.
