Ella Fitzgerald was, by any yardstick, a remarkable singer. She had achieved much by the time she signed to the newly created Verve Records in 1956, but it was the genius of Norman Granz, her personal manager, in suggesting that she tackle the material of great contemporary composers in themed albums that sent her career into orbit. Ella had the world at her feet during the late 1950s and early 1960s, recording her songbooks and delighting concert audiences across the globe. Featured here are the original Irving Berlin and Duke Ellington recordings, digitally remastered for optimum sound quality.
