On March 25, 1962, the First Lady of Song was at the height of her musical powers, dazzling the audience at Berlin's Sportpalast with her versions of "Cheek to Cheek", "Someone to Watch over me", "Mack the Knife", and other vocal masterpieces. Professionally recorded but never released, the tapes were thought lost—until now. Recently discovered in the private collection of Verve founder and producer Norman Granz, who was also Fitzgerald's manager, the complete concert is an incredible time capsule, and a stellar example of her musical genius. 17 tracks on 1 CD.

What a wonderful voice. I had it playing while my granddaughter and I baked Christmas cookies. She really liked the music. That is high praise from a teenager. The zippier songs made our task go faster.
