Item Details
Description
Certificate from the Queen Elizabeth II for the Royal Variety Performance on Nov. 26, 1973. Duke Ellington was so inspired by his 1958 presentation to Queen Elizabeth II of England that he composed "The Queen's Suite," made a single pressing of the recording and had it couriered to Buckingham Palace. It is fitting that one of his last major performances was in honor of the Queen, performed at the Palladium in London in November of 1973. This certificate was given to Duke in honor of his Royal Variety Performance. The concert was one of the last on Duke's final European tour. Soon afterward, Duke would be diagnosed with the cancer that took his life in May of 1974.
