It’s a fifth appearance at Montreux for this singer in from the cold who has her musical family to keep her warm. A key figure of contemporary jazz, Diana Krall bewitches with her rounded contralto timbre and her piano rambles, for which she’s been awarded several Grammies. In her most recent album, Glad Rag Doll (2012), Diana mischievously extracts the charm from ’20s standards and polishes them up as though they had just been invented yesterday. Marvellous vaudeville, skillfully produced by guitarist T-Bone Burnett and accompanied by Marc Ribot, among others. (FFJM © 2013)

Half a century ago, Brazilian composer and musician Antonio Carlos "Tom" Jobim (1927-1994) introduced bossa nova to a worldwide audience with "The Girl from Ipanema." This relaxed, cool, sensuous music blended jazz and samba. After recording an album of songs by his friend Jobim, Frank Sinatra is reported to have said, "I haven't sung so quietly since I had laryngitis." Naturally, "The Girl from Ipanema" and Frank Sinatra are featured in this musical collage of countless seamlessly edited excerpts of concert footage that cover decades of events all over the world: from Rio de Janeiro to Lisbon, Paris, Copenhagen, Jerusalem, Tokyo, Montreal, New York and back to Rio.

Grabado en vivo en el Olympia de París el 1 de diciembre de 2001, el estilo clásico de Krall combina a partes iguales visión artística, trabajo duro y determinación. La nativa de Columbia Británica comenzó a tocar el piano a la edad de cuatro años y ahora tiene cinco álbumes impresionantes detrás de ella. Debutó con Only Trust Your Heart, aclamado por la crítica, y el álbum encabezó las listas de jazz de Billboard durante la mayor parte de 1998, lo que le valió a Krall una nominación al Grammy. Luego ganó el Grammy de Mejor Interpretación Vocal de Jazz por el disco de platino que vendió en 1999, When I Look in Your Eyes, y se convirtió en la primera artista de jazz en 25 años en ser nominada en la categoría Álbum del Año.
