"Jubilee Stomp" is a jazz composition by Duke Ellington, recorded in 1928. Here is a brief history of the song:
Duke Ellington, born in 1899, was a prominent jazz composer, pianist, and bandleader. His career spanned over 50 years, during which he composed thousands of pieces and significantly influenced jazz music.
"Jubilee Stomp" was composed by Duke Ellington. The piece was recorded on March 7, 1928, in New York City. It is an early example of Ellington's work and reflects his innovative approach to jazz composition and arrangement.
The song is characterized by its lively, upbeat tempo and intricate arrangements. It showcases the talents of Ellington's orchestra, featuring strong brass sections and intricate piano work by Ellington himself. The composition blends elements of New Orleans jazz with the emerging big band style.
"Jubilee Stomp" was released as a 78 rpm record on the Okeh label, one of the prominent labels of the time. It received positive acclaim and contributed to Ellington's rising fame during the late 1920s. The song's energetic style and sophisticated arrangements exemplified the direction in which jazz was heading.
