Diana Krall Special Edition 2DVD Set - A Top Story This Week
10/20/2009
.
Diana Krall Special Edition 2DVD Set was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (Kayos) Diana Krall is a truly noteworthy artist, both as a singer/songwriter and performer. On October 27, Eagle Rock Entertainment will release the perfect showcase of her matchless brand of creativity: the Live In Rio: Special Edition 2DVD set.
In this stunning concert, originally released as a single DVD on May 26 (Eagle Rock), Diana Krall captivated the crowd through eighteen evocative tunes, which are all standards interpreted through her unique style. Classics like "Too Marvelous For Words," "I've Grown Accustomed To His Face," and "Walk On By," are imbued with her sumptuous blend of jazz, samba, and bossa nova. Many of these songs were from her recently released Quiet Nights album (Verve, Spring 2009), on which she explored her long fascination with bossa nova. On this night in Rio de Janeiro, filmed in November of 2008, Krall allows her passion for this music to flourish in the city which inspired her love of latin styles, while accompanied by her band and an orchestra.
This special edition 2DVD set features not only the bonus material from the standard DVD ("Conversations," an interview with Krall and her band, and "The Boy From Ipanema" promotional film), but a second disc with extra live material recorded in Canada, Spain and Portugal. The 5-track "Rooftop Sessions," which was only available on the Blu-ray release (ERE, May 26), and the promotional film for Quiet Nights completes the disc. Live In Rio: Special Edition captures Diana Krall at her scintillating best. - more on this story
