Product Description

From Amazon.com

Recorded at the historic Olympia Theatre in Paris in November 2001, this is Diana Krall's first live album. Backed by her quicksilver combo of bassist John Clayton, drummer Jeff Hamilton, and guitarist John Pisano (on some tracks), Krall's jazz heritage comes through loud and clear on this program of standards, ballads, and bossa novas. On Peggy Lee's "I Love Being Here with You," Bob Dorough's "Devil May Care," and Frank Sinatra's "Fly Me to the Moon," Krall's snappy, postbop piano playing shows off her debt to Nat "King" Cole and Jimmy Rowles. Her cool contralto vocals are illuminated by the Orchestre Symphonique Europeen, under the direction of Alan Broadbent, as well as the London Symphony Orchestra, led by conductor Claus Ogerman. Krall's deep take on Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You" is a great choice for an encore, and the CD concludes with Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are" (a studio track from a film called The Guru), with tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker and bassist Christian McBride. This collection only hints at what Diana Krall has to offer in the future.--Eugene Holley Jr.


Chronique amazon.fr

Grâce à The Look Of Love – trois millions d'albums vendus dans le monde – , Diana Krall est aujourd'hui une superstar du jazz. Sans être comparable aux trois grandes, à Billie, Ella et Sarah, ni même à Anita O'Day, elle chante tout simplement avec beaucoup de naturel un répertoire qu'elle choisit avec goût et qui lui va comme un gant. La dame est jeune, jolie, photogénique et, de surcroît, s'entoure des meilleurs arrangeurs – Johnny Mandel, Claus Ogerman dont les partitions apportent beaucoup à ses disques. Ne boudons donc pas notre plaisir à l'écoute de ces concerts qu'elle donna à l'Olympia de Paris, les 28 et 29 novembre 2001, de ces chansons de Cole Porter, George et Ira Gershwin, Joni Mitchell, des standards de diverses époques que Diana affectionne. Elle est aussi la propre pianiste de son quartette avant de se faire rejoindre sur scène par l'Orchestre symphonique européen et par Claus Ogerman lui-même dans "'S Wonderful". Un beau programme. --Pierre de Chocqueuse

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Diana's Best, Jul 18 2004
By A Customer
I bought "Girl in the Other Room" and did not care for that depressing album at all. But when a friend played this for me, I could not believe it was the same singer. This is an amazing album, full of swing, sass, life and great orchestration, everything the other album is not. I am going to have to listen to her other previous albums now. This one was wonderful, I hope there is more from this singer like this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Kick off your shoes, put on this CD, and relax., Jul 3 2004
By Stacey Elza (Morgantown, WV) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was introduced to Diana Krall when a friend of mine recommended "Love Scenes," and I have been hooked on Diana's laid-back, slick, vaguely retro voice ever since. "Live in Paris" is by far my favorite of her albums. While the DVD features several more songs than does this CD--"Pick Yourself Up" and "All or Nothing" come to mind--the CD is still perfect for setting a causal, intimate vibe (during car trips, get-togethers, or quiet evenings at home with a good book and a glass of wine). In fact, the range of moods Diana sets with her smoldering voice make "Live in Paris" appropriate for a variety of occasions; "I Love Being Here With You" features a lively, hopping rhythm section, "East of the Sun" is playful swing, and Diana's cover of Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You" is given a new, meloncholic texture with her deep voice and tinkling piano work.

The charm of "Live in Paris" does not lie in the touch-ups of any producers, but in the subtle performance Diana gives, along with the tight-as-clockwork jazz ensemble backing her up. This is a disc that can be played for years and still sound fresh. Fans of Norah Jones; Harry Connick, Jr.; or Natalie Cole will surely enjoy this treat, as will any lover of well-crafted music with a jazzy bend.
