Ella Fitzgerald & Oscar Peterson

Some great Ella's live performances now this one from 1953 JATP tours....

 In March 1953, Ella & Oscar and a group of people visited Switzerland on a JATP tour performed at a large theater there. Ella started off cheerfully with a youthful voice. The fast tempo scat and the ballad that makes you listen carefully are impeccable. From the ninth track, Peterson performed with Brown and Kessel in a straightforward manner. The sound quality is also superb, and the stage is full of enthusiasm and activity, typical of jazz of this era, and the audience also applauds with a crackling applause.
