Italian jazz pianist Dado Moroni's performance of "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" is a jazz interpretation of the classic standard written by Duke Ellington (music) and Bob Russell (lyrics) in 1940 (the original instrumental version was "Never No Lament," 1940; lyrics added in 1942).

Moroni's version of the composition fits within the framework of modern post-bop/contemporary jazz: refined piano improvisation, subtle dynamics, rich harmony, and a respectful nod to jazz tradition. Moroni retains the melancholic, slightly ironic atmosphere of the original—about feelings of loss and alienation after a breakup—but reinterprets it through the prism of European jazz sensibilities.

Moroni's recordings of this composition appear in live performances and studio albums (for example, in a trio with double bass and drums), and always highlight his virtuosity, lyricism and deep understanding of jazz heritage.
