Diana Krall is a unique case of success in the modern jazz, able to mobilize crowds like few others, and his secret is difficult to unravel. ‘We Could Not just say goodbye’ begins, however, to do so: the Canadian, who confesses emotional at the moment, loose your fingers on the keys and each word sung sounds peace. It is an original theme of The Boswell Sisters, on an inescapable love, but peace is there.

The acoustics of the Colosseum favors to, and interaction with the audience makes up a good pace, through a truly eclectic alignment that reinvented from Nat King Cole to Paul McCartney, but the nostalgia was one of the main courses, Diana walked undoubtedly ‘On the sunny side of the street’, perhaps because ‘There is not no sweet man that’s worth the salt of my tears’, sang it with spite and security itself.

The public responded and returned the superb performance of Diana accompanied by musicians Krall consummate whose rhythmic notes echoed in the room and rocked.

Of course the ‘Wallflower’ belong to night, and did not miss the interpretation of this already distant subject of Bob Dylan, and ‘Let’s face the music and dance ‘Nat King Cole, or the masterful interpretation of’ California Dreamin ‘, towards the end.
