Ella Fitzgerald's Christmas LP
Recorded in 1967 as her second album for Capitol Records, Ella’s focus solely on sacred hymns was quite the juxtaposition from her Swinging Christmas album on Verve earlier in the decade. Working with conductor Ralph Carmichael and his orchestra, Fitzgerald faithfully takes on classics including “O Holy Night,” “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “Joy to The World,” and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” in multiple settings, from smaller instrumental chamber groups to full choral support.
