Our Take
With Duke Ellington's "Such Sweet Thunder", we are taken on a whimsical and enchanting journey through the realms of Shakespearean literature. This album, like a midsummer night's dream, is a delightful fusion of jazz and poetry that transports the listener to a world of romance, intrigue, and magic. From the haunting melodies of "Star-Crossed Lovers" to the lively rhythms of "Up and Down, Up and Down", Ellington and his orchestra weave a tapestry of sound that is as grand and majestic as the Bard himself. Each track is a musical sonnet, full of passion and emotion, that captures the essence of Shakespeare's timeless tales. The musicianship on display here is nothing short of breathtaking, with Ellington's unique arrangements and innovative compositions pushing the boundaries of what jazz can be. The interplay between the different instruments is like a well-choreographed dance, each member of the orchestra bringing their own flavour and flair to the mix. Overall, "Such Sweet Thunder" is a triumph of creativity and imagination, a testament to Ellington's genius and lasting legacy in the world of jazz. So grab a glass of mead, don your finest doublet and hose, and let Duke Ellington whisk you away on a musical adventure fit for a king. This album is truly a tempest of sweet sounds that will leave you spellbound and wanting more.
