1934. Apollo Theater, Harlem, NYC. Amateur Night.
The 17-year-old “Snake Hip Ella” wanted to enter the competition as a dancer. But her legs gave out just before the show was about to begin. So she spontaneously sang a song—her mother’s favorite: “Judy.” And young Ella Fitzgerald won first prize, marking the beginning of a unique journey that would make her the most famous jazz singer of all time.
Neustadt an der Weinstrasse. Radio Time.
Twelve-year-old Nicole Metzger hears recordings of Ella Fitzgerald on the radio. She is completely fascinated by Ella’s voice and her scat singing. And this is where Nicole Metzger’s journey to becoming a jazz singer began. The show *One Night of Ella* is therefore deeply close to Nicole Metzger’s heart, and with captivating stories and wonderful songs from the Great American Songbook, she transports us into Ella’s world. Metzger’s great talent as a singer and emotional performer lets us experience an evening with Ella. “One Night of Ella.”
She is accompanied by top-notch jazz musicians—from a trio to a quartet. Together, they represent swing at its best!
