Duke Ellington

Billy Strayhorn

The Far East Suite

Jazz Lines Publications

In Nine Movements

Background of The Far East Suite:The Far East Suite is one of the more interesting and unique creations in the Ellington/Strayhorn oeuvre. It’s a reflective, evocative, virtuosic, impressionistic aural tour through the East (mostly the Middle and Near East as many have pointed out over the years) as seen through the eyes and ears of two men who were musical visionaries and who had musicians behind them who were capable of vividly enunciating their visions.

The Ellington Band went on a State Department-sponsored tour in 1963 which took them to Syria, Jordan, India, Sri Lanka (then known as Ceylon), Pakistan, Iran (then Persia), Lebanon, and Turkey. These travels-along with a 1964 tour of Japan-served as the primary inspiration for a musical suite. This concept piece had a long and complex development. The first iteration, then known as Impressions of the Far East, was initially performed in early 1964 in England and consisted of four movements: Ellington’s Amad and Depk, and Agra and Bluebird of Delhi by Strayhorn.

By the time The Far East Suite was recorded in December of 1966 it had grown to its final length of nine pieces. These pieces had various origins and sources of inspiration; some were even previously written at least in part. The overall cohesiveness and maturity of the suite can partly be attributed to its long gestation period, as pieces were refined and re-worked over a lengthy period of time. They came together to form what is generally considered to be one of Ellington and Strayhorn’s masterpieces; it can also rightfully be seen as the swan song of their historic collaboration, as Strayhorn was very ill when it was recorded and passed away just over five months later.

When completed, The Far East Suite was meant to convey the excitement and awe felt by the band when traveling to lands that were truly foreign-exotic and totally different from what most of them had experienced before. It’s all there in the music-themes, motifs, form, harmonic progressions, and ideas that convey exhilaration joy, sadness, and various musical incantations of the mystery of life in the East.

The opening tune, Ellington’s Tourist Point of View, conveys the sense of wonder at arriving in the East after landing in Syria. Mainly a vehicle for tenor sax star Paul Gonsalves, the piece creates a wide-ranging and diverse introduction to the suite with a sense of excitement at the sounds, sights, and exotic differences they were experiencing.

Strayhorn’s Bluebird of Delhi (originally titled Mynah) is a tribute to a mynah bird that often visited his room while the band was in India. Jimmy Hamilton’s clarinet evokes the sound and spirit of the bird, with Hamilton mimicking the “pretty lick” (in Ellington’s words) that the bird used to sing. According to Duke, the bird never answered Billy’s banter until they were leaving, and “then it sounded off the low raspberry you hear at the end of the number.”1

Isfahan was based on an earlier Strayhorn work called Elf, which was first performed in 1963. Named after Persia/Iran’s former capital, it was inspired by what Ellington called “a city of poetic beauty.”2 Isfahan became the best-known piece on the record, in no small part due to Johnny Hodges’s stunningly beautiful work on this cut; few players were more suited to mirror poetic beauty with their playing than Hodges. Isfahan also became the only popular standard from the suite, largely due to its more familiar form.

Ellington’s Depk was inspired by a children’s dance in Amman, Jordan, adding playfulness and a child’s sense of hope and optimism to the suite. Depk, Ellington recalled, “involved a dozen boys and girls and was marked by a little kick on the sixth beat.”3 This “kick” is musically represented by the occasional use of tags and extended phrases throughout the piece.

Next comes Ellington’s Mount Harissa, originally known as Nob Hill, which takes its name from a famous hilltop in Lebanon. This movement showcases his sometimes underrated piano playing. Once again is Paul Gonsalves on

tenor, showcasing a more sprightly, upbeat approach than his earlier spots on Tourist Point of View. It’s an evocative piece, which continues to develop the themes of the suite while spotlighting the interplay between Ellington and one of his most trusted lieutenants.

Duke’s Blue Pepper, originally known as 3D, stands out somewhat with its shift to a rock-and-roll-style backbeat. It’s almost an interlude on the record; a sort of upbeat palate cleanser for the ears. Highlights include Hodges’s stellar alto sax and Cat Anderson’s high note acrobatics over the melody recap.

Strayhorn’s Agra is named for the Indian city which is home to the world-famous Taj Mahal. Indian motifs are clearly evident in this piece. It was written to feature Harry Carney’s baritone sax, which brings to mind the majesty, beauty, and deep emotions extant in the legendary Indian landmark and its backstory.

Ellington’s Amad works to convey the overall mystery of the region. Famed critic Stanley Dance drew attention to Lawrence Brown’s trombone performance in particular, which is no doubt meant to evoke an Islamic “call to prayer.”4

Finally, Ad Lib on Nippon was composed by Ellington and tenor sax/clarinetist Jimmy Hamilton after the aforementioned 1964 visit to Japan. This movement consists of four sections: Fugi, Igoo, Nagoya, and Tokyo. Fugi and Nagoya, largely piano pieces, showcase Ellington. Igoo was composed originally for an American Airlines short advertising film entitled Astrofreight. Hamilton’s playing and his oral history comments on the Tokyo section strongly suggest that this was his composition. Ad Lib has a distinct Eastern feel, perhaps due to the legacy of Ellington’s many visits to Japan; his piano solo is especially moving.

The Far East Suite is a landmark work. Aside from its beauty, creativity, originality, and cohesiveness-despite the diverse nature of the pieces-it stands out in many ways. As critics have noted, the “Eastern” feel is achieved with standard big band instrumentation familiar to the Ellington canon-they did not introduce Eastern instruments to more easily evoke the sounds of the region as many others in various genres of music have done. Instead, uses of themes, motifs, form, and vamps familiar to various Asian music traditions were subtly incorporated to create the unique sound palette. The individual musicians were used in the same way: Hamilton’s clarinet represents the mynah bird, Hodges’s alto evokes the poetic beauty of Isfahan, Gonsalves’s tenor builds on Ellington’s feelings about Mount Harissa, and Carney’s baritone conveys the majesty of the Taj Mahal and its history.

In addition, this work, while clearly bearing all of the marks of its creators, also heavily reflects the freer trends and overall change coursing through the music world in the second half of the 1960s. In a new way, Ellington and Strayhorn reinforced their idea that big band music belonged in a concert hall. One might also be very tempted to consider this to be among Ellington’s more accessible works, containing a range of universal emotions ranging from the exotic to the playful.

Ultimately, this piece, listened to in its entirety, is an adventurous musical journey away from the comfort zone of most listeners and even to some degree of the players. Still, the familiar instruments and easily-recognizable composer/arrangers and soloists firmly root this work in the Ellingtonian canon and within the jazz tradition as well. The influences of the East were mixed perfectly with the familiar style of the Ellington band as a group and the individuality of its members. The Far East Suite succeeds in blending old and new, different and familiar; presenting a truly singular musical look at cultures entirely foreign to most Westerners, yet conveying emotions every person could relate to and appreciate-and doing it all in a way that is also just plain fun to listen to again and again.

Excerpt from the liner notes from A Love Supreme:This new version of A Love Supreme is the first example of Wynton Marsalis’s intention to bring the music of John Coltrane into the repertoire of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, which inarguably performs the largest repertoire of jazz material in the world, stretching from the work of Jelly Roll Morton to that of Ornette Coleman. “That will give us some challenges,” says Marsalis, “and it makes that music new because no one has put it into a big band context, which is another place that it belongs. All great music should be played in as many contexts as possible. That is one of the reasons that we have the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra.”

A Love Supreme is, obviously, one of the most influential and revered of jazz recordings. At that point in his career, John Coltrane was immersed in moving from the macro of harmonic complexity to the micro of harmonic simplicity. But his greatest contributions were made in his additions of new ways to address the essentials of jazz: his band had achieved fresh interpretations of 4/4 swing, of ballad materials, of the blues, and of Afro-Latin grooves. Most of his innovations were not in what was written, but in how his band played. His greatest importance and influence came through the extraordinary improvising of a saxophonist, a pianist (McCoy Tyner), a bassist (Jimmy Garrison), and a drummer (Elvin Jones). Coltrane’s music was in his and his ensemble’s playing, and he could not have achieved what he did without musicians of any less originality and intensity than those in what is now called the classic John Coltrane Quartet. “The point of what John Coltrane was doing in A Love Supreme was finding out how much he could do with a very small amount of material. So the challenge of writing for a big band is to figure out how all of that music comes together and how to build upon its fundamental ideas,” says Marsalis. “The first thing is that he has a cyclical form, which begins in the universal church and ends in the church of Negro spirituals. The first movement relates to influences from as far away as Japan in the flute parts. It builds on the unity of the minor third and the fourth, which is a kernel of the pentatonic scale that runs through all the music around the world. Coltrane was aware of this, I’m sure. The first movement ends with the congregation saying “A Love Supreme” individually from the low baritone saxophone to the piccolo. The clarinet threads this together with the pentatonic scale of each statement, which is in different tonal center. So the clarinet adjusts to each change.”

The second and third movements speak for themselves, and each features explosive improvisations from either Wess Anderson or Marsalis, as well as virtuosic heat and authority from the brass and reed sections, all riding on the stoked up groove of Carlos Henriquez and the incomparable Herlin Riley. By the last movement, “We are back in the church.” Marsalis chose to build his arrangement on Coltrane’s solo, which became, as with all the best jazz improvisation, a composition the moment it was released on record. A stunning conclusion is reached as this grand statement is not improved by any means, but enlarged to meet the ambitions and standards of our greatest jazz big band. Nothing can every replace the original, but as this recording proves, even things we think we know all about can be extended into areas beyond our imagination. In essence, that is surely part of the meaning and one of the great satisfactions of jazz.
