          Do you think that Schubert would have contributed to the Great American Songbook - for example, by composing a quintet for Ella?

            It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                      Would have had one Ella’ve a job - maybe Claire Voyant would have been a co-composer!
