Whisper Not is a 1967 (see 1967 in music) album by the American jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald, with the Marty Paich Orchestra. Ella had previously recorded with Marty Paich and his more familar Dek-tette on the 1957 (see 1957 in music) album Ella Swings Lightly.

'Whisper Not' is Ella's penultimate recording for the Verve label. Her 11 years on the Verve label had seen her make her most acclaimed recordings, critically and commercially. The Jazz critic Will Friedwald described her Pre-Verve work on Decca as 'Seeming a mere prelude', and her 'Post-Verve years as an afterthought'.
