Diana Krall 'Live In Rio: Special Edition' 2-DVD Set - In Stores Today

Diana Krall is a truly noteworthy artist, both as a singer/songwriter and performer. Today, Eagle Rock Entertainment releases the perfect showcase of her matchless brand of creativity - the Live In Rio: Special Edition 2-DVD set.

This stunning concert was originally released on single DVD and Blu-ray on May 26, 2009 (Eagle Rock), and quickly hit #1 on the Canadian Music DVD SoundScan charts. Diana Krall captivates the crowd through eighteen evocative tunes, which are all standards interpreted through her unique style. Classics like "Too Marvelous For Words," "I've Grown Accustomed To His Face," and "Walk On By," are imbued with her sumptuous blend of jazz, samba, and bossa nova. Many of these songs are from her recently released Quiet Nights album (Verve, Spring 2009), on which she explored her longtime fascination with bossa nova. On this night in Rio de Janeiro, filmed in November of 2008, Krall allows her passion for this music to flourish in the city which inspired her love of latin styles, while accompanied by her band and an orchestra.

This special edition 2-DVD set features not only the bonus material from the standard DVD ("Conversations," an interview with Krall and her band, and "The Boy From Ipanema" promotional film), but also a second disc with extra live material recorded in Canada, Spain and Portugal. The 5-track "Rooftop Sessions" (previously available only on the Blu-ray version) and the promotional film for "Quiet Nights" complete the disc. Live In Rio: Special Edition captures Diana Krall at her scintillating best.

Since her debut in 1993, Diana Krall has topped both the pop and jazz charts, selling millions of records worldwide. Her previous Eagle Rock release Live In Paris (April 4, 2002) has surpassed 6x platinum in Canada and is one of the top selling DVDs worldwide for Eagle Rock. In her 17-year career, this Grammy-Award winning artist has also accrued an international fan base, having sold out amphitheaters in many countries.
