‘Perdido’ is a jazz standard composed by Juan Tizol and first introduced in 1941 with the Duke Ellington Orchestra. The tune became widely popular through performances and recordings by Duke Ellington and later interpretations by artists such as Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie.

Built on a 32-bar AABA form, ‘Perdido’ is known for its catchy, riff-based melody and has become a staple of the jazz repertoire, frequently used for improvisation in both small group and big band settings. The title, meaning ‘lost’ in Spanish, reflects Tizol’s Puerto Rican heritage and adds a subtle Latin flavor to the composition.
