Product Details

Ella Fitzgerald remains the undisputed gold standard of American song interpretation, her phrasing so deeply felt that producers and arrangers have been reaching back to her recordings for decades to find something new. Pairing her voice with a full orchestral setting at Abbey Road places her in the company of the great studio collaborations she pursued throughout her career, from her landmark Songbook sessions onward. Gregory Porter, one of the most soulful voices working today, is a fitting presence here.

Ella Fitzgerald’s iconic vocals are given new life by marrying newly recorded string arrangements from the London Symphony Orchestra. Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, and conducted by James Morgan and Jorge Callandrelli, this new approach to Ella’s timeless music reinvigorates her catalog and is sure to excite and please long time Ella fanatics and classical music connoisseurs at the same time. Guest vocalist Gregory Porter also lends his incredible talent to "People Will Say We're in Love”.
