Melbourne Vocalist Mel Searle and her stellar band will pay tribute to the First Lady of Song: the great Ella Fitzgerald! Also featuring the smooth vocal stylings of pianist Craig Smith to recreate the magic of the ~Ella & Louis DUETS~Ella Fitzgerald, whose career spanned more than five decades, was one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time.
Join Mel Searle and her band as she traces Ella’s fascinating journey and performs scintillating interpretations of the songs that made Ella famous.
“If Ella Fitzgerald was the greatest American singer, it was in part because she could turn any song into an oxygen rush of bouncing melody that reached the listener’s ears as pure, untroubled joy. It’s not just that her singing is beautiful. It is also liberating, transporting us into a realm of pleasure beyond all barriers, whether of race and age, of jazz and pop, of high art and low, or even, when she floats into scat, of language.” Frank Rich, New York Times, 1996
With an innate talent for vocal improvisation and an exquisite vocal warmth and depth of tone, Mel's vocals are luminescent and empathetic… her interpretation of the “Ella experience” is definitely one not to be missed!
