Any improvisor can increase the interest level and emotional impact of his solo by prioritizing on its melodic development rather than on trying to express the complexities of the harmonic progression. Greater harmonic and rhythmic knowledge and facility lead to greater melodic sophistication, but without an essential melodicism any jazz solo risks becoming more abstract and less memorable.

Kelletria's voice spans a melodic range from sultry deep alto, to lyrically operatic soprano. Kelletria's music career began as early as high school where she performed as part of a jazz ensemble. Her initial intent was to deftly work the upright bass, but alas, as she plucked the strings, the notes tempted her vocal cords, moving Kelletria to need to sing. And sing she did! After five years with the jazz band, she earned the Billy Holiday Award. That was 1996 -and Kelletria was the first recipient of this coveted honor. It was thereafter considered a revered trophy inspiring future talented soloists. While pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree from South Carolina State University in Music Education, Kelletria's primary concentration was Voice. Throughout her college years, Kelletria toured the southeastern United States with their jazz ensemble. This experience provided important facets of her lifelong desires - the ability to role model for young people who aspired to follow her lead. As an ambassador promoting the music she still loves, Kelletria was for three years named "Vocalist of the Year", and was inducted into the SCSU Jazz Hall of Fame in 2000.
