Our Take

Ella Fitzgerald, the queen of jazz, takes us on a whirlwind journey through the bright lights of Broadway and the smooth grooves of Nelson Riddle on this two-in-one album delight. Ella Sings Broadway/Ella Swings Gently With Nelson is a double dose of musical magic, showcasing Fitzgerald's powerhouse vocals and unmatched versatility.

From the moment Ella's velvety tones glide over the opening notes of "Summertime" from Porgy and Bess, you know you're in for a treat. Her impeccable phrasing and effortless delivery bring new life to classic show tunes like "My Funny Valentine" and "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered."

But it's when Ella swings with the legendary Nelson Riddle that the real magic happens. Their chemistry is undeniable, as they effortlessly glide through up-tempo numbers like "I Get a Kick Out of You" and "Cheek to Cheek." Riddle's lush arrangements perfectly complement Ella's vocals, creating a sound that is at once nostalgic and fresh.

This album is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado, as well as anyone looking to add a touch of class to their music collection. So sit back, pour yourself a cocktail, and let Ella Fitzgerald take you on a journey through the golden age of Broadway and swing. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Ella Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald, the First Lady of Song, is a jazz icon who needs no introduction. With a career spanning over six decades, Fitzgerald's mesmerising voice and improvisational skills have earned her a well-deserved spot in the music hall of fame. Born in 1917 in Virginia, Fitzgerald's talent was evident from a young age. Discovered at a Harlem talent show in the 1930s, she quickly rose to fame with her smooth, velvety vocals and impeccable scatting techniques. Known for her breathtaking range and pitch-perfect delivery, Fitzgerald's performances were always a sight to behold. Throughout her illustrious career, Fitzgerald collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Louis Armstrong. Her groundbreaking series of "songbook" albums, in which she covered the works of famous composers like Cole Porter and George Gershwin, cemented her status as a true musical genius. Fitzgerald's influence extends far beyond the realm of jazz. Her ability to inject emotion and soul into every note she sings has inspired countless artists across genres. From pop to rock to hip-hop, Fitzgerald's legacy lives on through the artists she has inspired. As a music reviewer, it is hard not to be in awe of Fitzgerald's unparalleled talent and impact on the music world. Her timeless voice continues to enchant listeners to this day, proving that true talent knows no bounds. Ella Fitzgerald may no longer be with us, but her music will live on forever.
