Diana Krall The Language of Love

A gifted pianist and a sensual vocalist whose music is deeply personal but true to jazz standards, Diana Krall possesses a talent for touching the heart of every one who hears her perform. Following in the tradition of popular artists like her idol Nat King Cole, Diana has not only hit the top of the jazz charts but also the pop charts. Her album When I Look in Your Eyes is the best selling jazz recording in history, while The Look of Love debuted on the Top Ten Billboard chart, the first jazz album to do so. Named the Jazz Female Vocalist of the Year by Down Beat magazine, she has also won a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. Born on Vancouver Island, Diana Krall attended Berklee College of Music in Boston on a scholarship before releasing her first album to critical acclaim. Like her Canadian counterparts Alanis Morissette, Sarah McLachlan, Shania Twain, and Celine Dion, she has since become a music celebrity. Among her ardent fans and personal friends are Elton John, Sting, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Clint Eastwood, who featured her music in his film True Crime and produced her single for Why Should I Care? Her music has also been featured in the soundtrack for Sex in the City and the Robert DeNiro film The Score. Diana Krall: The Language of Love offers the first in-depth look at the life and work of this new jazz diva.
