Ella Jane Fitzgerald (Newport News, Virgínia, 25 de abril de 1917 — Beverly Hills, Califórnia, 15 de junho de 1996) foi uma cantora estadunidense de jazz.
Também conhecida como "Lady Ella" ou "A Primeira Dama da música", Ella Fitzgerald é a rainha do chamado scat. Mestra nas improvisações, cantava como um músico, usando a voz como um instrumento.
Sempre dividiu opiniões sobre ser ou não a melhor vocalista do jazz da história com a não menos brilhante Sarah Vaughan
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
