Er spielt die Geige mit einer Leichtigkeit. Es ist ein Genuss ihm beim spielen zu zuhören.

Duke Ellington, a great musician and a great human being ,,,

Gone to heaven with Duke and Steph.

[@BennyGoodman1977]

Hope so

[@hudsony777]

Never knew they performed together. Incredible. Lucky I was to see Grappelli live at a small Village club in or around '77.

¡Madre de Dios, qué capos, un placer!

[@opale1572]

¿"Capos"? No sabía que eran de la mafia.

[@MusicKit]

WOw! I'm a jazz violinist and have often played the 2 tunes - Don't Get Around Much Anymore with I Let A Song Go Out of my Heart, but I have never heard Duke do that, though I knew he must have - but to hear him do it with Stephane! Amazing!

[@harizonjakatianazandry1392]

Thank you for posting.

[@micheithilloy9424]

Quand les tripes s'allient à la maîtrise technique voilà ce que ça donne ! Mais ce n'est pas donné à tout le monde c'est pour celà que c'est si précieux.

[@fallingdownlessons]

So nice but also sad that Duke died just a year later.

[@danyfranck524]

[@JanJohanssonmusic]

OMG!!! This is powerful...

[@ghmus7]

People don't realize what a fantastic pianist Duke was...

[@MrSvendKreiner]

Yes we do!

[@adamblock5141]

You can see how much people adore Duke, by the lack of comments about his hair in this video 😂

[@richardpeck7672]

Unique chords

[@thomassciaroni6942]

Utterly beyond GRAND MAESTRO, which is only 10,000 hours of practicing

[@noahord1563]

bruh i can only dream to ba able to play so well with someone and have such groove without a bassist

[@michaelwatson113]

Step aside everybody and let top experts show us how it's done.

[@marcellomentasimonsennico5670]

Many very interesting things here. Duke and Grappelli had recorded before together ("Duke Ellington's Jazz Violin Session", one of the best footnotes on each men's career- don't miss this!), even though none of the tunes on this video are on that album. Additionally, this must be one of the last footages of Ellington, who would pass only after a few months. And it celebrates a respectful and eventful meeting between of one of Jazz' greatest womanizers with a pioneer gay Jazz giant. Music brings people together.

[@rubengreenberg2253]

They probably hadn't rehearsed. Just put two giants together and they'll cast their spell.

[@howardsmith8879]

Don't get around anymore

[@MikeSpexTV]

Heaven!!

[@harrynking777]

Economy of movement in both musicians.

[@dennissheeran4703]

I'm certain that these guys had their share of trouble and some how managed to be able to create this beautiful music

[@leestephenson9492]

Stunning!!! Thanks so much for posting. What is the source for this? I've spent a life seeking out small group and solo Ellington and must confess never knew about this. Is there more? Thanks again

The Art Tatum of the Volin

[@opale1572]

Quizá. Pero es una lástima que no lo acompañase el Art Tatum del piano. Admiro a Ellington, pero como acompañante me parece limitado ( al menos, en este vídeo ).

[@opale1572]

Buen comentario. 😆

[@Lengo67]

This doesn't work for me. Grappelli's violin is far too soprano for this.

[@catfish336699]

congratulations for such an intelligent comment.

[@daviddeverteuil8663]

NEVER HEARD ANYTHING LIKE THAT...., SORRY TO HEAR THAT ''IT DOESN'T WORK FOR ''YOU'' A VIOLIN IS A VIOLIN, IS A VIOLIN, AND CANNOT SOUND LIKE ANY THING BUT A VIOLIN! (IN THIS CASE A ''STRAD'') THERE IS HARDLY ANY MUSIC LOVER., ESPECIALLY IN THIS CASE..,JAZZ!!! THAT WOULD NOT AGREE THAT STEPHAN IS THE GREATEST JAZZ VIOLINIST THAT HAS WALKED THE FACE OF THIS EARTH. SMOOTH AS SILK. MAN..., LOOK AT THE JOY ON THE DUKE'S FACE.., HE IS NO LONGER WITH US BUT IF HE WAS AND READ YOUR OPINION HE WOULD JUST SMILE. HE NEVER WENT AROUND BOASTING THAT HE IS THE ''GREATEST'' . ONLY CASIUS CLAY (MOHAMED ALI DID) (in his mind he would simply say.., poor fella, pity him) MY REASON FOR MAKING THIS COMMENT IS SIMPLY THAT I JUST CANNOT AGREE WITH YOU. BY THE WAY.., I AM ALSO A MUSICIAN.., MY MAIN INSTRUMENT IS AN OVER 400 YEAR OLD ''MAGINI'' AS WELL ''ELECTRIC VIOLIN'' ONE 4 STRING, E/A/D/G AND ONE 5 STRING (the lowest a C string.) IT IS THE COMBINATION OF A VIOLIN AND A VIOLA BUT WITH THE COMFORT OF BEING THE SIZE OF A VIOLIN. I HAVE OFTEN PLAYED WITH SMALL GROUPS OF MUSICIAN FRIENDS OF MINE.., ALL EXCELLENT MUSICIANS. MY AGE IS NOW 80 YEARS AND 8 MONTHS.., I STARTED AT THE ''RIPE'' AGE OF 7.., LATE BY TODAY'S STANDARD. (EXAMPLE : RUSSIAN GENIUS: MAXIME VENGEROV STARTED WHEN HE WAS ONLY ''FOUR''. CHECK HIM OUT ON UTUBE ''PLAYING BY HEART'' 50 MINUTE DOCUMENTARY. HE IS FROM ANOTHER PLANET! SO..., NOTHING PERSONAL.., BUT ''STEPHAN'' HAS LEFT BEHIND A GREAT HISTORY. (HE WAS ALSO PIANIST) THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY MUSICIANS THAT CAN DO THAT. ALSO JUST CHECK HIM OUT PLAYING A TANGO WITH YEHUDI MENUHIN..., THE FIRST OF SEVERAL RECORDINGS THAT THEY DID TOGETHER. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.., GOOD HEALTH TO YOU ALWAYS! DMDV.

[@daviddeverteuil8663]

YOU MAY ALREADY KNOW THIS.., BUT ''STRAD'' REFERS TO THE VIOLIN MAKER (ITALIANO) SIGNORI ''ANTONIO STRADIVARI'' (1644 TO 1737) FROM A TOWN CALLED CREMONA.

[@daviddeverteuil8663]

FORGOT TO SAY THAT ANTONIO ALSO MADE CELLOS (pronounced CHELLO) AND DOUBLE BASSES. APPARENTLY ALL ARE DOCUMENTED. BIDDING PRICE AT AN AUCTION (very rare) ON A STRAD VIOLIN STARTS AT TEN '''MILLION''' YUP!!!

[@daviddeverteuil8663]
