Duke & Thelonious est un voyage créatif, à la fois joyeux et exigeant, qui se vit comme une fête, comme un pas de danse, comme une course poursuite funambulesque effrénée à travers les joyaux du jazz.

 

Spécialistes des réinterprétations — souvenez-vous de l’hommage à Georges Brassens — et des recréations musicales de tous genres, Denis Charolles et ses comparses s’acoquinent avec deux monstres sacrés, deux grands pianistes et compositeurs : Duke Ellington et Thelonious Monk. Ellington, alias the Duke, c’est l’élégance faite swing et mélodie, la luxuriance du Big Band. Thelonious Monk, c’est l’originalité absolue, l’âpreté faite poésie. Une mélodie, un rythme et c’est notre mémoire qui s’affole : In a sentimental Mood, Crépuscule With Nellie, Epistrophy, Sophisticated Lady, Braggin’n Brass, Concerto for Cottie !

Les musiques à ouïr, l’un des ensembles les plus déjantés de l’Hexagone, vit la musique avec un appétit féroce qui se propage comme une onde. La puissance du swing, encore une fois, bouscule le public qui bascule, sans retenue, dans la fête.

Duke of Gloucester

Taken looking towards Flimby Maryport

Unknown, circa 1930

The Duke of Lancaster is a railway steamer passenger ship that operated in Europe from 1956 to 1979, and is currently beached near Mostyn Docks, on the River Dee, north-east Wales. It replaced an earlier 3,600 ton ship of the same name operated by the London Midland and Scottish Railway company between Heysham and Belfast.

  

The Lancaster was sold to Liverpool based company Empirewise Ltd, who intended her to be used as a static leisure centre and market. She arrived at her new home at Llanerch-y-Mor, near Mostyn, on 10 August 1979. The ship was brought into a permanent dock and the hull was sealed — not in concrete, as is commonly thought, but surrounded by a large tonnage of sand pulled out of the Dee estuary. Known as "The Fun Ship", it was also possible to visit her bridge and engine room. Conversion for use as a 300-room hotel did not appear to go beyond the preliminary planning stage. Its use as "The Fun Ship" was relatively short-lived and it was subsequently closed to the public because access to the ship is via a bridge under the North Wales railway line, which is too low for emergency vehicles. Over time, the vessel has become increasingly derelict.

 

The ship was later used as a warehouse by its owners Solitaire Liverpool Ltd, a clothing company registered to the same address as Empirewise Ltd. Despite rumours that the ship would be scrapped, the company stated that they have no plans either to sell it or to restore it and its current use is uncertain.

 

Despite having large amounts of its exterior paintwork covered in red-leading, the interior of the ship is in very good condition. It was featured in the 2011 series of BBC2's Coast.

Duke Paoa Kahanamoku (1890-1968) in Waikiki

HMS Iron Duke is a Type 23 frigate of the Royal Navy, and the third ship to bear the name.

Iron Duke has intercepted several large consignments of illegal drugs being sent from the Caribbean to Europe.

In her only combat mission, she was in action off Libya in 2011, destroying a gun battery outside the besieged town of Misrata. She also fired star shells through the night to illuminate pro-Gaddafi positions for NATO aircraft to destroy rocket launchers, fuel dumps, ammo stores, artillery batteries and command and control centres, whilst also confirming that no civilians were in the area.

Iron Duke was launched on 2 March 1991 by Lady Jane King in the presence of the Duke and Duchess of Wellington. Her affiliated town is Kingston upon Hull, and she is named after Arthur Wellesley, the first Duke of Wellington (the "Iron Duke"). She was the fifth Duke-class Type 23 frigate to be launched for the Royal Navy, at a cost of £140 million.

The motto of Iron Duke is Virtutis Fortuna Comes (Latin: "Fortune is the companion of valour") – inherited from the 33rd (The Duke of Wellington's) Regiment of Foot.

Iron Duke carries a number of weapons and sensors which make her a multi-purpose combat vessel. Like all T23s, her original design role was anti-submarine warfare, but she can be employed in a variety of roles. She carries a Wildcat Helicopter which can be used in an anti-submarine and anti-surface role as well as for humanitarian and search and rescue purposes. The ship, like her sisters HMS Monmouth, HMS Montrose, HMS Lancaster and HMS Argyll, did not receive the new Sonar 2087 upgrade that other frigates of the class subsequently received. Therefore she has been regarded as a "general purpose" frigate without the more specialized anti-submarine capability of the other eight ships in the Type 23 fleet. However, on the retirement of HMS Westminster in 2024, it was reported that the S2087 towed array from that ship might now be fit to Iron Duke instead, though it remained unconfirmed whether this would actually occur.

Iron Duke was the First of Class fit for the Royal Navy's new Type 997 Artisan 3D, successfully firing her missile system, using the new radar combined with the updated 'SWMLU' Seawolf missile targeting system, in the English Channel.

Adjoining the statue, a piece of granite from London Bridge (1825 to 1967) has been set into the pavement by the Corporation of London. The elevational stonework from the same bridge was re-erected over the Colorado River in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, USA, in 1971. Royal Exchange Forecourt, Threadneedle Street, London EC2
