North Greenville University Cultural Events presents the acclaimed duo in Exuberant Ellingtonia, a salute to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, Juan Tizol and Mercer Ellington. Called "master musicians" (CultureJazz.Fr), the duo brings style and verve to classics like Caravan, I’m Beginning to See the Light, Don't Get Around Much Anymore, Prelude to a Kiss, In a Sentimental Mood, and Stayhorn's eloquent ballad Isfahan. The duo’s CD, Exuberant Ellingtonia (Americas Musicworks, 2022), has been hailed for "exceptional evergreen brilliance" (Gapplegate Music Review) and "jubilation...swinging performances" (Textura Magazine).
