The Nutcracker Suite is an album by American pianist, composer and bandleader Duke Ellington recorded for the Columbia label in 1960 featuring jazz interpretations of "The Nutcracker" by Tchaikovsky, arranged by Ellington and Billy Strayhorn.
 The album was rereleased on CD in 1990 as part of "Three Suites" along with Ellington's reworking of Grieg's "Peer Gynt Suite" and "Suite Thursday," his tribute to John Steinbeck.
 The original 1960 cover is notable for the inclusion of Strayhorn's name and picture along with Ellington's.
The Blanton–Webster Band is a compilation album that combines the master takes of all the recordings by Duke Ellington's Orchestra during the years of 1940 to 1942, involving bassist Jimmy Blanton and tenor saxophonist Ben Webster.
 The recordings were originally made for RCA Victor during what many critics regard as the Ellington orchestra's golden period.
 The three CDs contain many numbers which were to become classics, and the arrangements (by Ellington and Billy Strayhorn) were frequently inventive and innovative.
William Thomas "Billy" Strayhorn (November 29, 1915 – May 31, 1967) was an American jazz composer, pianist, lyricist, and arranger, best known for his successful collaboration with bandleader and composer Duke Ellington, lasting nearly three decades.
 His compositions include "Take the 'A' Train", "Chelsea Bridge", "A Flower Is a Lovesome Thing", and "Lush Life".
"Something to Live For" is a 1939 jazz composition by Billy Strayhorn.
 It was the first collaboration between Strayhorn and Duke Ellington and became the first of many Strayhorn compositions to be recorded by Ellington's orchestra.
 The song was based on a poem Strayhorn had written as a teenager.
 According to an all-day tribute to Strayhorn on KCSM radio on 29 November 2008—Strayhorn's birthday—Strayhorn began working on this tune in 1933 when he was 18.
"Blood Count" is a 1967 jazz composition by Billy Strayhorn.
 It was originally meant for a three-piece work Strayhorn was writing for Duke Ellington and initially titled "Blue Cloud".
 However, Strayhorn was hospitalized in 1967 due to cancer and finished the composition while in the hospital.
 He died on 31 May and "Blood Count" was his last finished composition.
 The Ellington orchestra debuted "Blood Count" at a Carnegie Hall concert in March, this was later released as "The Greatest Jazz Concert in the World".
 In August 1967 Ellington recorded the tune on his tribute album for Strayhorn, "...And His Mother Called Him Bill".
 Although Ellington never played the tune again after the recording session, many other artists have since recorded it, including Stan Getz, Jimmy Rowles, Joe Henderson and Bobby Watson.
 "Blood Count" will be a part of the repertoire for the 2013 Essentially Ellington competition.
"Isfahan" is a jazz piece credited to Billy Strayhorn and Duke Ellington and released on Ellington's 1967 album "The Far East Suite"; Isfahan is a city in Iran.
 It features long-time Ellington soloist Johnny Hodges on alto saxophone.
 It was originally called "Elf" when Strayhorn composed it, months before the 1963 Ellington orchestra world tour during which the group traveled to Iran.
"Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue" is a big band jazz composition written in 1937 by Duke Ellington and recorded for the first time on May 15, 1937 by the Duke Ellington Orchestra, whose personnel were: Wallace Jones, Cootie Williams (trumpet), Rex Stewart (cornet), Barney Bigard (clarniet) Johnny Hodges, Otto Hardwick (alto saxophone), Laurence Brown, Joe Nanton (trombone), Harry Carney (clarinet, bass saxophone), Sonny Greer (drums), Wellmann Braud, Freddie Guy (guitar), and Duke Ellington (piano).
 No tenor saxophone was present in this recording section, nor in "Crescendo in Blue," which was recorded the same day.
 In its early form, the two individual pieces, "Diminuendo in Blue" and "Crescendo in Blue," were recorded on opposite sides of a 78 rpm record.
 The composition's 1956 performance at the Newport Jazz Festival revitalized Ellington's career, making newspaper headlines when seated audience members chaotically began rising to dance and stand on their chairs during Paul Gonsalves' famous tenor saxophone solo.
