Wednesday, March 25, 8pm: Thing 002121 (Satin Doll) Thing 002121 (Satin Doll) concerns a controversy around the instrumental version of the jazz song "Satin Doll" by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. The Strayhorn Estate and Tempo Records claimed rights in Strayhorn's arrangement of the Ellington melody, including the addition of a harmony, as a derivative work. On December 16, 1993, during the court case Tempo and Strayhorn estate v. Famous Music and Ellington estate at the United States District Court of New York, Judge Sandon had to decide whether a different harmony added to an earlier jazz composition could be protected by copyright.     Participants: Charles Curtis (musician and writer), Anne Farnsworth (jazz musician and educator), Robert Fink (musicologist), Tony Reese (lawyer), Bobby West (jazz piano player, composer and producer).
