Ella Fitzgerald was known as the “Queen of Jazz<\/a>“. \u00a0 An American jazz vocalist with impeccable diction, phrasing and a vocal range spanning three octaves. \u00a0She would create and change the notes spontaneously with an effortless improvisational style in perfect pitch while we all watch and listen in awe. \u00a0There was no auto tuning here. \u00a0There were no simple three note melodies. \u00a0This was the real deal. \u00a0Ella set the bar high for everyone to follow. \u00a0Whether you are a lover of jazz or not, it would be difficult not to recognize her God-given talent.<\/p>\n

Listen and witness a master at work giving off a joyous smile as she makes it all look so simple. \u00a0Especially with her style of scat singing. \u00a0I wonder who can sing like her today out of all our new singers? \u00a0I hope that there is someone, or that a young talent will grow and meet her expertise someday.<\/p>\n

She really had something special and gave us everything, every time with every recording and live performance. \u00a0Take a minute to read a bit of history on this musical genius Ella Fitzgerald<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here she is performing a live 7:00 minute uptempo version of “The Man I love.”<\/p>\n
