Ellington Duke. The Ellington Collection for Solo Guitar

Los Angeles, CA: Warner Bros. Publications, 1994. — 34 p.Compositions by Duke Ellington (1899-1974), edited by Aaron Stang, arranged by Howard Morgen.
From the Howard Morgen Fingerstyle Jazz Series: 12 of the "Duke's" most memorable compositions arranged in standard notation and tablature.
From the Foreword: Two of the songs included in this collection appear in my book "Concepts" and one is from "Fingerstyle Favorites." All three have been modified slightly and tablature has been included. The remaining nine selections originally appeared in segmented form in my fingerstyle jazz column in "Guitar Player Magazine." Although these arrangements have been written primarily for their entertainment content, you may find them useful for their etude value as well. I've listed... a number of solo guitar concepts and techniques along with the song titles in this folio that best illustrate their application.Concepts/Techniques:
