Description
Today, Ella Fitzgerald is commonly considered the greatest vocalist in the history of jazz. That wasn’t always the case. She became a teen star when she hit it big with the Chick Webb Orchestra in 1938 with “A-Tisket, A-Tasket.” Yet, she faded from the limelight, only to hit it big once again in the mid-1950’s with her legendary Songbook recordings. From then on, Ella was always at the forefront of jazz royalty. Recordings, video clips, and live performances from Seth will keep this class lively. (See also class #107)
