Alan Broadbent provides the tasteful orchestrations on several of the tunes. Krall sounds most at home in the great American songbook, and you’ll find plenty of gems here by Cole Porter, Rodgers & Hart, Irving Berlin, and Johnny Mercer. But there are some real surprises and discoveries as well, such as Krall’s hypnotic take on “Sway,” by Norman Gimbel, Pablo Rodriguez and Luís Molina. With its unhurried pace, it’s the longest cut on the album, and maybe the longest cut on any of Krall’s previous albums. It doesn’t feel like it, though, as the orchestra lulls the listener into a state of sun-drenched bliss. One of the things I also love about Krall is the imperfection of her voice. Back on “What Are You Doing New Years Eve?” on “Christmas Songs,” her voice cracks as she nears the end of the first chorus, underlining the song’s coy pleas. Here, Krall strains a bit to hit the notes on “Isn’t it Romantic,” though it’s never a matter of pitch—sometimes it just sounds as if her voice is about to give out, wistfully. The arrangements on the disc, by Krall, are splendid. On more than a few tunes, a jaunty violin (Stuart Duncan) is added to the ensemble. The orchestra never overpowers the small group. For lovers of great standards, rendered exquisitely, this is a must-have. http://tpr.org/post/diana-krall-her-best-turn-quiet#stream/0 Page 2 of 5 Diana Krall At Her Best On 'Turn Up The Quiet' | Texas Public Radio 5/10/17, 11:59 AM Diana Krall - Blue Skies (Audio) TAGS: JAZZ (/TERM/JAZZ) !

Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates.

  • Diana Krall's Turn up the Quiet World Tour to Stop at the Hanover Theatre
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Diana Krall’s Turn Up The Quiet World Tour to stop at The Hanover Theatre WORCESTER, Mass. (June 11, 2018) Multiple Grammy® Award-winning jazz pianist and world-renowned singer, Diana Krall continues with the fourth North American leg of her international Turn Up The Quiet World Tour that has visited over 100 cities in Europe and North America thus far. Twenty-one additional U.S. concert dates have just been announced for this October and November, including The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts on October 6 at 8 p.m. Tickets go on sale to members of The Hanover Theatre on Thursday, June 14 at 10 a.m. and go on sale to the public on Friday, June 15 at 10 a.m. Having previously visited Europe and South America, the Turn Up The Quiet World Tour has been wowing audiences with material from Krall’s stunning latest album “Turn Up The Quiet” (Verve Records) and has now become the biggest in Mrs. Krall’s career. Earning critical praise, DOWNBEAT Magazine called the album "spellbinding… Krall knows how to put her own distinctive stamp on decades-old standards, making them sound fresh and vibrant." Turn Up The Quiet holds significant importance as it was the last recording Krall made with her long-time mentor and collaborator, producer Tommy LiPuma, before his sudden passing last year and is dedicated to his memory. Diana Krall is the only jazz singer to have eight albums debut at the top of the Billboard Jazz Albums chart. To date, her albums have garnered five Grammy® Awards, ten Juno® Awards and have also earned nine gold, three platinum and seven multi-platinum --more-- albums.

    E.ON presents: 10. VeszprémFest 16-20 July 20 13 16 July 17 July 18 July 19 July 20 July Diana Marcus Paco Nigel Craig Krall Miller de Lucía Kennedy David Main sponsor veszpremfest.hu Veszprem Castle In case of rain: Veszprem Arena Diana Krall Diana Krall's extraordinary new album Glad Rag Doll (2012, Verve Records) is an exhilarating 16 July and adventurous exploration of new sounds, new instrumentation and new musicians. It stars a singer and piano player, filled with mischief, humour and a renewed sense of tenderness and intimacy. "We all just went in there as if the songs were written yesterday. I didn't want to make a period piece or nostalgia record", said Krall. In fact, these are songs that Krall has spent a lifetime contemplating. Both her childhood home and her current address are stacked with 78rpm records and song folios filled with precious and unpolished gems, songs that have not worn out their lustre from repetition. If any of these songs could be identified as "20's or 30's music," then they are 20's or 30's songs as imagined for the 21st Century. The same could be said for a startling rendition of the Doc Pomus classic, Lonely Avenue , first cut in the 1950s. The contemplative, contemporary reading of the old Gene Austin recording of Let It Rain finds a sympathetic echo in Krall's exquisite rendition of Buddy and Julie Miller's more recent ballad of spiritual longing, Wide River To Cross . Krall was born in 1964 in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada.
