DIANA KRALL IN CONCERT

Born in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Diana Krall grew up on Vancouver Island in the western part of Canada and began studying the piano when she was four years old. By the time she was 15, she was playing jazz in local restaurants and bars. 

Ms. Krall was still a teenager when she was awarded a scholarship to the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. After two years in Boston she moved to Los Angeles, where she first me her Jazz influences, including John Clayton, pianist/singer Jimmy Rowles, and Ray Brown, the legendary bassist who served as her musical mentor (and played on Only Trust Your Heart). Ms. Krall had lived in Los Angeles for three years when she then moved to Toronto, and it was a Canadian label that gave her a chance to record for the first time. In 1993, the Montreal-based Justin Time Records released her debut album, Stepping Out. In 1994, she signed with GRP and recorded Only Trust Your Heart, which featured Brown on bass and Stanley Turrentine on tenor saxophone and marked the beginning of her association with Tommy LiPuma (who has worked with everyone from Barbra Streisand to George Benson).

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, 10 Juno® Awards and have also earned nine gold, three platinum and seven multi-platinum albums. Krall's unique artistry transcends any single musical style and has made her one of the most recognizable and beloved artists of our time.

    doc, as in the 7 dwarfs

    by sparkyg12 on 7/7/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    she was very good but it sometimes was hard to hear her. i was really disappointed in the crowd--noisy, talked through the concert, annoying comments and loud. i hoped that Ms. Krall would have just not responded to some of the assinine comments from the audience or stopped the banter in some way. overall, the event was quite enjoyable and sheis a terrific talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Diana Krall is a great pianist!

    by Marj on 7/6/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Loved hearing Diana sing and play the piano. I wasn't very impressed with the pre-show and wished Diana could have played longer.

    Diana Krall is amazing

    by nanaray on 7/6/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Diana just gets better with age. Her piano playing is outstanding and that voice has become so smoky and sexy. She reminds of the old time torch/cabaret singers. You truly get your money's worth with her show. Backup trio was also excellent.

    Krall Melody Tent

    by nimrod1 on 7/4/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Ok here's the deal, I have been to this venue before. I saw Michael Feinstein and Linda Edder here and it was an amazing show. Krall's show here seemed to be disjointed. I don't mean her actual performance, but more the coordination of it. The show was scheduled to start at 8:00 pm. It did start at that time with a warm up act of a very good guitarist who played for approximately 25 min. Then... The lights came back on... and announcements about enjoy the concesions. Diana Krall and her trio entered exactly @ 9pm. Diana was accompanied by her husband Elvis Costello who gave her a kiss and then she walked on stage and proceeded to to sit down and get right to it. It was clear to me that she knew she was late. My Feeling. No words. No hello. After two numbers, she did engage the crowd in a very nice way. She got some heckeling from one woman inparticular. She told that woman to shut up and the crowd cheered. Diana's performance was nothing short of spectacular. Her and her band are so tight that they read each other's mind's on pick ups, solo's, and all out jamms. It was some of the best jazz I have ever heard with some of the most brilliant anrrangements I have ever been witness to. I only wish I had been sitting in a little smokey jazz bar and they were going to play for 3 or 4 hours. It was that good. A little dis-jointed for the melody tent. Satisfied at the back end. Best Summer showcase in New England. Nimrod1

    Diana Krall was enthralling...

    by melph1 on 7/4/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    From the time she was led into the Cape Cod Melody Tent by husband Elvis Costello, she held the crowd in her hands. Diana Krall enthralled the sold out venue with a variety of songs that fans were hoping to hear from this multi-talented musician. She could be a star just for her piano playing alone if it wasn't for her dreamlike voice. This is the second time my wife and I have seen Diana live but it won't be our last. Diana was simply dazzling...

    Diana Krall is "The Best"

    by Oystrclaman on 7/4/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    entertaining, funny, exhuberant and soothing are the words that best describe the performance of a very talented individual. The accompanying trio of musicians were spectacular and her piano playing is second to none. A MUST SEE EVENT

    Disappointed

    by phan17 on 7/4/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Looked forward to seeing Diana in person ... have 3 of her CDs. Unfortunately, the show starred the Diana Krall Jazz Band, with Diana piloting and playing the piano. The jazz band was good, very good, but there are lots of good jazz bands... and lots of really good jazz pianists. I wanted to hear Diana Krall, the singer cuz there is only one of her and she is great ... but, Diana the singer only was there for a couple tunes ... too bad.

    MUSICAL DIANNA

    by JANE on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    I THINK DIANNA DID A WONDERFUL JOB LAST EVENING. SHE REALLY CAN PLAY THE PIANNO. I THINK IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCELLENT IF SHE SANG MORE, SHE HAS A BEAUTIFUL VOICE, AND IT SHOWS IN ALL HER ALBUMS. BUT LAST NIGHT SHE WAS MORE INSTRUMENTAL THAN MUSICAL.

    Diana Krall -- the Real Deal!

    by LesN on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    The Diana Krall Concert at Cape Cod's Melody Tent was a real joy -- I am so pleased that I was finally able to see Diana and her teriffic group of musicians in a live concert! And it was really nice to see Diana escorted to the stage by her husband, Elvis Costello, and to see him give her a loving kiss. Now to the performance -- it was great! The songs were nicely varied, a good selection of my favorites from Diana's CD releases. The quartet with Diana on piano, Robert Hurst on bass, Anthony Wilson on guitar, and Jeff Hamilton on drums was really "together" and was very exciting to listen to; and the sound quality in the tent was very good too. Diana Krall has it all -- a beautiful woman with a lovely voice, and she really plays a swinging piano.

    Diana Krall was wonderful!

    by Duane on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Diana Krall gets better and better. The intimate setting of the Melody Tent and her trio was perfect. She is an extremely skillful jazz pianist and soulful/romantic singer. See her when she comes around again!

    unforgettable night

    by srrp on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Diana Krall was amazing. Her voice was in top sultry form, her piano playing was majestical. The combination made for a truly unforgettable concert experience. She was escorted to the stage by her husband, Elvis Costello, who left her with a kiss, but remained to watch the show from the back. The revolving stage at the Melody Tent enabled the audience to both watch her expressive features, and at times view her hands on the keyboard. Her backup band was also in top form, iteracting with her seamlessly. Even for a Diana Krall fan, I left the concert awed and impressed by her show.

    Dianna was great!

    by catesmom on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Dianna Krall was fantastic! I really enjoyed listening to her play and sing. However, the audience was terrible! They were noisy, rude and made it difficult to enjoy the show. There were women behind us that talked the whole time, people taking pictures and being rude. I would have thought this common at a rock concert but this was jazz! Also would not have expected this rude behavior from the older crowd. I was embarrassed to be associated with the people in the audience.

    Diana Krall soars while audience swoons

    by Rick on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    The Melody Tent is an outstanding venue in most respects. The fact that it's sometimes on the flightpath to the Hyannis Airport is of minor consequence when one as humorous as Diana makes the outside noise an integral part of her audience raport. She was luminous under the spotlight and everyone in the theatre in the round was thrilled to see her head on on several occasions. We haven't seen her this radiant in a while...Her solo piano playing was unusually lengthy for the set, though she humorously returned to one vocal after the Steinway was having difficulty responding in the Cape's fog-shrouded evening. Her keyboard riffs and sultry voice soared, her torches were white hot, her raport with her fans incomperable and the good feeling was returned throughout the evening.

    Diana Krall is fabulous!

    by Bear11 on 7/3/09Cape Cod Melody Tent - Hyannis

    Diana Krall and her trio are not to be missed. Her voice and jazz interpretation is incredible! In addition, the jazz improv -- Diana's piano and her trio -- is amazing! Saw her twice this Spring - once at the Providence Performing Arts Center and once at the Cape Cod Melody Tent. The opening act at CCMT was not great and Diana did not appear until 9:00 (was an 8:00 start) Preferred the PPAC as there was no opening act and she came on right as scheduled!
