An Evening with Dianne Reeves
Thursday, February 14, 2008, 8pm
Ticket Price: Regular admission $45 / $55
$25 Tickets available for students and seniors
Considered one of the most important vocalists of our time, Dianne Reeves possesses, without question, one of the finest voices in Jazzsimultaneously powerful, intimate and full of emotion. Blessed with a stunning vocal range, Reeves delivers superbly focused sound and articulate phrasing as she artfully blends the traditional with the contemporary. Dishing up sinuous, stylish renditions of standards and new compositions alike, this celebrated performer is capable of sculpting each song she sings into a delectable musical morsel audiences never want to end.
An artist known more for her live performances than her albums, notwithstanding her three Grammy Awards and numerous nominations, Reeves clearly has inherited a place on the Apollo Theater stage. This contemporary Jazz legend squeezes every ounce of passion out of every song and has long described her performances as her own personal prayer time. Her command of every technical element, from her dead-on pitch, controlled scatting and chromatic descents to an irrepressible swing and narrative approach to lyrics allows her to craft every song as if it was written just for her.
