Lizz Wright has always had a very attractive voice, whether singing gospel, jazz, standards, or pop, and she has been a popular attraction during the past decade.

On this performance, sung in tribute to Ella Fitzgerald during her centennial year in 2016, Lizz Wright is accompanied by pianist Kenny Banks on a luscious version of “The Nearness Of You” and talks briefly about Ella and her music.
