Ella Fitzgerald, the Legendary Scat Singer-Matt

Ella Jane Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald was born on April 25, 1917, in Newport News, Virginia.

Ella and her mother moved to Yonkers, New York City shortly after her birth because, sadly, her parents had just separated. Ella began to live on the streets of New York City after her mother died.

She began to learn scat music after Chick Webb invited her join his swing band. Chick Webb taught her how to do scat and bebop music, two different types of jazz singing.

Ella overcame the very unfortunate event of losing her parents. She also overcame living on the streets of New York.

After Ella became a scat singer she continued sing and after awhile became the ultimate scat singer.

She was not allowed to sing in the most popular night clubs because she had dark skin. This was very challenging for her as she was trying to grow as a popular musician.

Ella was a very independent person. Especially in her childhood because she lived all by herself on the tough streets of New York City.

She was always very hard working and determined. She never gave up in all of her life after all of the hard problems she faced.

Her amazingly fast and good scat singing made her one of America's most famous musicians of all time.

Ella Jane Fitzgerald was and is the undying flame that lights our musical heritage. She is one of the best musicians the US has ever experienced.
