Erm, I would like to introduce you some of the very unique jazz singers whom I like quite most. First of all, none other than this, Diana Krall. I came to know her back in few years ago while I was travelling in Hong Kong. I was in a pub, drinking with a long lost friend, and then I happened to listen to this amazing voice! From then, I started to listen to Diana Krall.
Diana Jean Krall, born November 16, 1964, is a Canadian jazz pianist and singer. Krall was born into a musical family in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Caadan. She began learning the piano at the age of four. In high school, she started playing in a small jazz group. When she was 15 she started playing regularly in several Nanaimo restaurants.
At age seventeen she won a scholarship from the Vancouver International Jazz Festival to study at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, and completed three terms.
Krall – for the few still unknowing – is the 41-year old sensation whose cool, heavy-lidded vocals and strikingly sensitive piano-playing has helped her transcend barriers of genre to become a popular artist of the first order who has carved herself a permanent position at the top of the jazz charts.
Do you have any of your favorite jazz singer whom you like to share with us? Please let us know! :)
