Black, Brown and Beige: A Duke Ellington Tone Parallel to the American Negro is a 1943 extended jazz suite by American composer and bandleader Duke Ellington. The work uses big-band orchestration to explore blues, gospel and classical influences across an extended, multi-movement form and marks Ellington's move into long-form jazz composition that explicitly engages with themes of African American history and identity.
