Ellington, Duke. (1899-1974) & Scott, Hazel. (1920 - 1981)

Original Photograph

Original 1950s photograph of the two great musicians. 8 x 10 inches, very fine. Stamps on the verso from the Lester Glassner Collection.

Hazel Scott was an amazingly versatile performer, equally superb as a jazz and classical pianist and singer. She was featured in a number of major Hollywood films and was the first woman of color to have her own television show, The Hazel Scott Show. Her album Relaxed Piano Moods on the Debut Record label, with Charles Mingus and Max Roach, is generally the album most highly regarded by critics today. (5793)
