the album cover for Longing / Various - Longing

Ellas Kapell was formed in the fall of 2016. Sharing an enthusiastic view on the great musical catalogue of Ella Fitzgerald, the band found it's moniker and initial repertoire. The repertoire has since expanded beyond the limits of Ella's songbook, but the band name remains. In 2018 the band started working on it's debut album Longing. Each band member chose their select few favorite jazz standards and expanded on their thematic and symbolic contents. Clad in new arrangements, the compositions retain their original core, but make bold excursions to modern, daring and personal realms. Addressed topics include rejection, abandonment, romance in the autumn of life, obsession and longing for the past. Some of the interpretations remain simple, carried only by the fragility of lyrics and harmony, while others make room for virtuosity and playfulness. Four of the tracks include guest musician Klas Lindquist on saxophone and clarinet.

Tracklist:

  1. The Nearness Of You
  2. You´d Be So Nice To Come Home
  3. The Lady Is A Tramp
  4. Darn That Dream
  5. As Long As I Live
  6. Body And Soul
  7. Almost Like Being In Love
  8. All Of Me
Format: New CD/Rock
