Vocal improvisation with wordless vocables, nonsense syllables or without words at all
Ella Fitzgerald is considered to be one of the greatest scat singers in jazz history[1]
Originating in vocal jazz, scat singing or scatting is vocal improvisation with wordless vocables, nonsense syllables or without words at all.[2][3] In scat singing, the singer improvises melodies and rhythms using the voice solely as an instrument rather than a speaking medium. This is different from vocalese, which uses recognizable lyrics that are sung to pre-existing instrumental solos.
