During the show every week, I’m cuing CDs and records, answering the phone, email, and texts, and, oh, yes, occasionally talking on the air. I’ve always wondered what you do during the show. I could make things up, or you could let me know. Leave a comment or email me at turntable@wmnr.org.

PLAYLIST FOR “ELLA FITZGERALD CHALLENGES THE WORLD!” (9.24.16)

26 Sep

This week Ella Fitzgerald took on all comers in a head-to-head, well, really a voice-to-voice competition. She sang standards and some surprising duets; she even challenged Sarah Vaughan in a “forgetting the lyrics” competition (Sarah won) and challenged Shirley Horn to a “slow singing” competition (Shirley won). But it was impossible to listen to this show without marveling at Ella’s musicality and her warmth and without feeling fortunate that we had her for so long.
