Diana Krall - Aug 5

She has been well written about over the last few months and it has to be admitted, it was well founded. There was not the clapping and shouting you find at a rock concert but this was a truly professional show. Her piano playing along with what must be a smokers voice, were superb.
She played some great standards, covering the likes of Frank Sinatra and many more to perfection. Sadly her husband was not around to join in, perhaps he was baby sitting the twins?
Before going you felt that this concert really needed a smaller venue, but this would have left the 4000 or so in a long line outside the Jazz Voyeur Club in La Llonja, Palma. But with what was obviously a lot of hard work and a very expensive (off island) production team Jazz Voyeur has yet again come up trumps. To be able to watch her piano playing close up was a real treat with the fantastic big screen set up that had been aranged. (Surely a first for Mallorca, especially at this quality level)
Well done guys, keep bringing them in.
