I’m sharing an interview Billy Strayhorn did for Downbeat’s 1967 composers issue. It’s about working, studying, thinking up the dreams as they are happening, conjuring, and ecstasies of practical magic in the collaborations between him and Duke Ellington. Archives are important and I’ll be sharing more here this year and beyond so that this feels like one.
