Description

Charles Mingus wrote the music and the lyrics of this song. He is my favourite composer. Listen to the beauty of the melody. In this song Mingus describes his love for the music of Duke Ellington. Augusto Pirodda, Manolo Cabras and Marek Patrman play respectively piano, double bass and drums in this version. I feel very lucky to have been able to sing this song accompanied by such great musicians.

Lyrics

Duke Ellington’s sound of love by Charles Mingus I was young and carefree Not a song had found my soul Lost in blues, jazz and ragtime No sound had got to my mood I was searching for my melody Love, blues that gets me wooed All alone Sad clown with his circus closed down Lost on my merry go round Came a melody in my heart so yearning Taught me to hear music out of love From the soul For this life we all live, infinite With the lover and beloved As one Ellington sound of love.
