Diana Krall - Live in Paris description
Does it get any better than this? Canadian torch singer and pianist Diana Krall is in perfect form in this two-hour Paris concert, recorded in December 2001 shortly after the release of her CD The Look of Love. In her band, guitarist Anthony Wilson and bassist John Clayton get the lion's share of attention, but the entire ensemble (including lush strings from the Paris Symphony Orchestra) provides flawless support for Krall, whose skill on a Steinway is as impressive as her smoky interpretations of vintage standards and ballads. Inspired by guest conductor-arranger Claus Ogerman, Krall can surprise with subtleties (like a delicious hint of the Beatles' "Day Tripper" in her closing of "All or Nothing"), or glide into solos with a master's flair. Matching the music beat for beat, the camera coverage and editing are intimate without being obtrusive, making this a bit of jazz heaven here on earth. --Jeff Shannon |

Jazz singer goes mellow
|
| There aren't very many music concert DVDs available playing standards rather than rock and other contemporary music. The best part of this record are Krall's five backup musicians. They are excellent, especially Anthony Wilson on the guitar. Diane Krall's singing and piano are very good too, but the selection of songs was on the slow and draggy side. All in all, this is the best DVD of popular standards that we have ever found. Henry Haggland, Napa, CA |
