New Orleans impressions from the Duke.

The tune is called Second Line, but there’s really no second line beat it it.

That said, it FEELS like New Orleans.

This piece, which is part of Ellington’s “New Orleans Suite”, reflects the Creole side of New Orleans: the subtlety, the elegance, the grace.
