- Essentially Ellington 2016 Competition
New World School of the Arts
Saturday, May 7, 2016
This year, the 21st annual Essentially Ellington High School Jazz Band Competition & Festival once again brought top ensembles from all over the United States to perform at the House of Swing in New York City.
Jazz at Lincoln Center is committed to instilling a broader understanding of Duke Ellington’s music, which lies at the very heart of America’s 20th-century musical heritage and the core of the rich canon of jazz music. That’s why we created the Essentially Ellington program (EE) during the 1995-96 school year to make Ellington’s music accessible to as many high school musicians as possible and to support the development of their schools’ music programs.

Jim Gasior
Love the tenor sax solo! He just had to find his groove!
You could tell by the rest of the band laughing that he was always ready to start ripping exotic lines he was just building up for the audience
gasior with the full body popoff after that performance
you can't convince me that that guy is in high school
not sure, but ted nash was definitely proveided by jazz at lincoln center 😭
I was upset the video ended so soon
Wish Nash would have taken another chorus
Nash was letting the youngins shine
Ted Nash!
does anyone know when the other songs from each band will come out?
Well, there's a link I found on Twitter that's an archive of the 2016 competition missingduke.blogspot.com/2016/05/essenentially-ellington-2016-la-fiesta.html
If you scroll down a bit on the website, you'll see the open rehearsal, part 1, part 2 + 3 + judge's announcement, and the final concert!
What's the mouthpiece for the bari
1:20
Why did Ted so a solo. Just asking
Velocisaurusman Because these cats got the top three, during the final concert, they got to preform, along with giving a solo to someone from the jalc.
