[edit]Am i mistaken in recalling Will Marion Cook as a mentor of Duke Ellington? No mention i can find in either article. --Jerzy (t) 12:47, 2005 Apr 16 (UTC)
Alex Ross' article "Learning the Score" in The New Yorker Sept. 4, 2006 states that Cook was a mentor of Duke Ellington. He does not cite a source.Casssnider 21:15, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Regarding the uncited claim that Cook studied overseas, I found mention in the New York Age (7 May 1908, p. 6) that Cook's mother "sent him abroad to study, and he had returned well-equipped to compete with the best in his line..." Unfortunately, no further details are given.
