As a child, Edward Kennedy Ellington was nicknamed Duke by his friends due to his gentleman-like behavior. Among the abundant prizes of the great American jazz figure is the Presidential Peace Medal received from President Nixon and the special Pulitzer Prize awarded posthumously.
New Wind Jazz Orchestra combines virtuoso play, young and angry temperament, and professionalism. The new big band has been convened with the aim of promoting the culture of Estonian jazz orchestras, actively giving concerts, cooperating with Estonian and foreign orchestra conductors, and representing Estonia in competitions for foreign big bands. The big band led by Lauri Kadalipp loves to test itself with new challenges and a demanding repertoire.
