About
The “First Lady of Song” Ella Fitzgerald was the most popular female jazz singer in the United States for more than half a century with 13 Grammy awards and more than 40 million albums sold. Lady Ella is a captivating tribute that features the vocal styling of national recording artist, Nicci Canada. Her melodic, warm vocal presentation captures the essence of Ella and is sure to warm hearts and sooth the souls of those who revere her.
Under the leadership of Saxophonist and Music Arranger, Letron Brantley, The big band sounds of the Nicci Canada Jazz Orchestra will deliver classical compelling tunes from the Gershwin, and Cole porter library such as Summertime, Just Another Rhumba and S’wonderful; a telling reflection of Fitzgerald’s repertoire. This is a jazzical celebration of a historic icon and we want to celebrate it with Ella Lovers around the world. We love you Ella!...
