Ellington 2020: Day One


Tomorrow is the first day of Mapping Duke Ellington's World, the 26th International Duke Ellington Study Group Conference.

We wish the conference every success and while we cannot be in attendance, villes ville will post details from the Ellington 2020 conference every evening this week, for the record, prior to the next day's activities.

The 26th International Duke Ellington Study Group Conference will take place at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., from March 11-15, 2020. 


This five-day multidisciplinary conference will bring together leading researchers and performers across the arts and humanities. The event will feature academic papers, panels, roundtables, and cultural walks/visits, as well as an exciting program of performances by local D.C. performers.

This theme is broadly conceived and can include presentations and performances on a range of topics, including Ellington’s travels/tours, Ellington’s collaborators, Ellington collections/archives around the world, transcription as a form of musical mapping, and more.
