There is something so sultry about the opening she and Peterson give here, and once they move into the hard swing, it's like they defy gravity with their rhythmic freedom. The stage is so heavy with talent, I don't know how it withstood the pressure.
@direfranchement I think that's a pretty perfect analysis. I've always thought Ella was the best ever at starting a song. The first few bars always grab you and pull you in to the rest of the song. Of course the phenomenal backing was a huge part of this but Ella's taste never failed.

Para Ella no tenía importancia nada, era una espléndida muestra del talento, sin modestia, porque no sabía de éso, era natural y maravillosa.

1:33 you can clearly see how she clapping her fingers, which mean that the rhytm must be more faster; very nice =)
