Esteemed composer Duke Ellington (1899-1974) created some of the most enduring work in the history of jazz. But his legacy reaches beyond music: often in collaboration with his writing partner Billy Strayhorn, he also wrote poetry and drama, and created genre-transcending mixed-media works that have been overlooked in Ellington scholarship. This study will research Ellington's unpublished writing, programmatic music and holistic, mixed-media approach to form as pivotal in the synthesis of the arts, to place his work in a tradition, build a critical framework and develop a vocabulary for analysing his synaesthetic work and its contexts.

受人尊敬的作曲家杜克·艾灵顿(Duke Ellington，1899-1974)创作了爵士音乐史上一些最经久不衰的作品。但他的遗产超越了音乐：他经常与他的写作伙伴比利·斯特雷霍恩合作，还写诗和戏剧，并创作了超越流派的混合媒体作品，这些作品在艾灵顿奖学金中被忽视了。这项研究将研究艾灵顿未发表的写作、编程音乐和整体、混合媒体的形式方法，将其作为艺术合成的关键，将他的作品置于传统中，建立一个批评框架，并开发一个词汇来分析他的通感作品及其语境。
