Music Jar – week 46

This week, I have even listening to Ella Fitzgerald. It doesn’t take a lot for you to realise what a big deal this has to be. There are so many songs, so many albums and only so much time.

So how best to approach one of the biggest and most influential singers of the last century. I listened to as much as I could (without listening to Christmas songs) and these are the lessons I have taken from the experience.

Ella Fitzgerald is very much a force for good. She worked with everyone, adapting her style and all the while maintaining her position as the queen of jazz.

You know her. You love her. There’s not a lot I’m going to be able to teach you about her work. Go and listen to it and marvel at what she did.
