Synopsis

Ella: The American Song Book is a celebration of “The First Lady of Song,” and the monumental position she played in jazz history.

 

Ella Fitzgerald epitomises the essence of a jazz singer, with many of her interpretations of the standards becoming definitive versions that shape our memory of those classic tunes today. Sit back and reminisce to the tunes of the Queen Of Jazz, interpreted by some of Singapore’s most sought-after jazz musicians.
