Ella Fitzgerald was one of the best-loved, most-respected and successful stars of the 20th century – often referred to as the ‘First Lady of Song’ and noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction and improvisational abilities, she recorded more than 200 albums and over 2,000 songs.

Those unique qualities are demonstrated here in some her finest performances, captured over the years in programmes like the 1965 ´óÏó´«Ã½ special Ella Fitzgerald Sings, a selection of concerts recorded at Montreux, and the legendary London jazz venue Ronnie Scott’s.

Among the classic songs included in the collection are her interpretations of favourites like Day by Day, Cheek to Cheek, Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye and Too Marvellous for Words.
