History
of The Ella Fitzgerald Music Festival
Ella
Fitzgerald was born in Newport News on April 25, 1917. Recognized
as ‘'The First Lady of Song,' she was the most popular female
jazz singer in the United States for more than half a century. Winning
13 Grammy® awards and selling more than 40 million albums, she
remains a glowing icon of American jazz culture, modern entertainment
and irresistible musicality. Christopher Newport University and
the City of Newport News celebrate her life and the music she loved
with the Ella Fitzgerald Music Festival. The festival brings the
finest jazz performers to Hampton Roads in her honor, and fosters
her legacy by presenting community outreach and enrichment programs,
including performances, workshops and master classes at Christopher
Newport University's Ferguson Center for the Arts.
