Elegy in Blue is an album by saxophonist/composer Benny Carter recorded in 1994 and released by the MusicMasters label.

[1][2] "Prelude to a Kiss" won the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Solo in 1995.

[4] AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "Benny Carter, 87 at the time of this recording, could pass musically for 57.

His alto playing is as flawless as ever but 79-year-old trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison very much sounds his age and falters constantly throughout the date ... Edison and the so-so material cause this session to fall far short of its potential".
