Summary: Ella is best LIVE
Comment: Seeing her perform live is the best way to see Ella Fitzgerald perform. Since she has now passed, the second best way is to her on video performing live. Great songs, and even better performances. Don't miss her rendition of "Hey Jude."

Summary: classic Ella
Comment: Ella fitzgerald showcases Her classic Instrument which moved so many peoples. Her range is amazing here. She incorperates so many styles here and make them all work. now she does the standards,but then takes on the Modern feel of the times. and her Riff Runs near the end of the show are magical. Ella Fitzgerald reminds you of what Greatness can truly feel like un-cut on a stage. the musicianship was fantastic.arrangements went into almost every direction that you could imagine and yet ella stayed on point.a Must have.

Comment: Since we don't have time machines, the only way to appreciate Ella Fitzgerald live is on the screen. This DVD is better than most since it captures the beloved First Lady of Song during a magical time of music. During this concert, Miss Fitzgerald's repertoire ranges from classic jazz to the Beatles and she sings every song flawlessly. A must-have for all Ella fans.
