- Symphony in Swing. Pre-recorded on Feb 16 and filmed on Feb 18,1949. Kay Davis (vocal), Lawrence Brown (tromb.), Ray Nance (viol.) and Harry Carney (bass clarinet) perform On a Turquoise Cloud at the beginning of this clip. In Frankie and Johnny, Tyree Glenn plays plunger trombone. Notice Nance waving his arms in the trumpet section at the end - known as Floorshow, he sang and played violin and trumpet in Ellington's band.

Still here, still watching. I remember my grandmother loved this song, I’m glad I get to play bass clarinet nowadays
Thanks posting ....never heard of Kay davis
I have read about her in Ellingtons biography, but never really listened to her that closely. My first thought is the sound Alice Babs' ( she sang on the Sacred Concerts ) have in her voice is so much alike Kay Davis' sound, can't help to wonder if Alice has "copied" her sound. I have listened mostly to the albums of later days with Ellington, Far East Suite, And His Mother Called Him Bill, The Great Paris Concert; I have about 17 LPs with Duke Ellington ...so and so... I looked to find where Kay sings with words and found this one, she sings " Lush Life " composed by Billy Strayhorn, and!! Billy jumps in and takes/plays the piano on this one. Kay is a very competent singer. Here is the one I found with Lush Life ( there is a bit presentation by Duke, but you can jump in a bit ) : ruclips.net/video/GqTDm34vyj0/видео.html
turns black and white into technicolor--so rich and textured.
The "Turquoise Cloud" performance also includes Jimmy Hamilton on clarinet.
Lawrence Brown on trombone is even more prominently featured.
every kind of beauty .
Magnificent
Adoro questo pezzoooooo! Il trombone più dolce del mondo❤
Perché, dell'incantevole voce di Kay Davis che si amalgama perfettamente con gli altri strumenti ne vogliamo parlare? :)
Ma certo, a 1:41 comincia l'apoteosi! Avevo anche la trascrizione di questa armonizzazione, la devo trovare, anche questo potrebbe essere un argomento😃
@@Quantestorienellamusica Certo! Anch'io ho in mente da tempo di scrivere qualcosa a proposito della voce usata come strumento musicale nei brani di Ellington!
Would you happen to have the rest of this short? The other pieces are Take The A Train, Suddenly It Jumped and Knock Me A Kiss.
Ellington seems to have put on a little weight - or is it a change in the aspect of the image?
The voicing of trombone, clarinet and voice is gorgeous.
Great film. Shame about the aspect ratio.
Ellington had three sorts of vocalists - black, brown and beige. No question which Kay Davis was.
who gives a fugg which "kind" she was? your momma?
Iwould rather to watch the great Lawrence Brown playing than those useless clouds!
I agree with you!
so you don't Scorsese directed this one?
Is Kay Davis also the soloist on "Lady of the Lavender Mist"?
There is no female vocal on "Lady of the Lavender Mist"
