Diana Krall Tickets

Having been a Diana Krall fan for 2 decades, I was excited to finally see her in person. There was no dimming of the lights, no announcement, they just walked out. She said 'hi' and started playing. For my liking, the mix on the piano was a bit quiet, as I struggled to hear her play at times. The stage was decorated, in my view, as if they were going for a retro Era, but seemed a little haphazard. The distracting background videos were short clips, continually looping, as if little thought had been given to it. These were just my initial observations, and after all I'm here to listen to her play...so I ignored the lack of visual appeal and watched her perform. She is an amazing artist, and jazz pianist, and in most cases that would be enough, and it almost was. I just was surprised by the lack of structure and organization with the sets, as if she was just going through a hand written list with little regard to flow or story, or mood. Most of the songs were very low key and mellow, with little upbeat momentum to carry it forward. I was also disappointed to not have a camera angle on the keys, the main reason one sees Diana Krall. The moments that she really played, she was great. With most concerts, there is a flow that inevitably brings you to a point where you can anticipate that it will end soon. Not so, it ended as abruptly as it began, 1 hour and 15 minutes later. We didn't stay longer but I noticed they came back for an encore. No emotions, no journey, no mood no silly story, or interesting fact. All that said, Diana is amazing herself, and I love the music. Having just seen DVD concerts prior to this evening, I was a little let down. The venue was not a particularly cheap venue for our seats, so if petted to be entertained. I love you Diana, but your "show" needs a little work.

We thoroughly enjoyed her show, well worth the money. Would definitely go to see her again. Her band was superb and very talented.

Really enjoyed the show. Diana Krall is an awesome talent. The band was really good. Enjoyed all the solos and how Diana appreciated each member... Go see this show.

Sound was great especially with the Hamilton Philharmonic.

The Hamilton Philharmonic accompanying Diana Krall's performance were fabulous. Diana Krall is an amazing talent; both vocally and musically. I would have liked to hear her sing more with a little less instrumental from her group. They were amazing but I wasn't there to hear them perform. She is also a little lacking in her interaction with the audience. Overall, though, I enjoyed the show.

Great seats to see an amazing performance by Diana Krall and her amazing band. Touching to hear that Diana's family was in attendance...special night for all. Highly..highly recommend seeing her in concert.

Diana Krall is yet another example of how rich this country is in talented artists. She's not only a phenomenal vocalist but a multi-talented musician as well. It is a source of pride to see her name on any billboard. Great accompaniment with her band and excellent backup by the HPO. Loved it all.

As always Diana puts on a great show. Lots of variation in the music. Her backup band is excellent. The inclusion of the HPO on some songs was a nice surprise. Overall a great performance by all.

Enjoyed every minute. Can hardly wait to hear that unforgettable voice again.. Glad she is in Canada.

Diana Krall is the least engaging artist I have ever been to. All she does is play the music. And it wasn't ever her music. 90% of the show was covers of other bands. I wouldn't recommend her show to anyone.

Excellent, It concert was fantastic and I was exciting. It was a good omento to relax and share with my husband.

We love the Diana Krall Wallflower album. I was most disappointed by the concert as was my husband. We expected her to play most of the songs on the Wallflower album; however, I think one or two were played. The backdrop to the concert was weird and others said the same thing to us while we were leaving the concert. This was our 25th Anniversary gift to each other. We were so disappointed! So disappointed! We really want our money back!

Jazz that crossed over covers from the 1920's to the turn of the century! Nicely done Light show/movie clips was novel and worked

I did not feel Diana's voice was as strong as I expected, but could have been the sound sittings, the piano and other instruments were good.

The concert was excellent, however, we would have preferred that Diana sang every song on the Wallflower CD, which is incredible. It was still a great show. We found the screen pics a bit distracting. The Centennial Concert Hall is a wonderful venue.

World class musicianship, artistic, creative use of visuals.

All musician are excellent. The sound was perfect (like CD). Great public interaction with Diana.

We were SO disappointed with this concert. Diana Krall has been a favourite artist of ours for a long time and we have many of her Cds. Bought tickets to the concert as a treat and it was expensive. wish I had not bothered because most of the evening was covers which we were not expecting. Back up orchestra was great and the fiddle player amazing. Diana Krall sounded like she had been at the sauce already and forgot her stuff more than once.

Diana Krall never left the piano …her band was great and The Calgary Backup was also wonderful…so when I closed my eyes and soaked in the music and her voice it was almost worth the $116 but not quite. I could have been home listening with a glass of wine …

Second time I've seen Diana Krall (other time was in a different city) She is very authentic and gifted. Its inspiring to see music poor from her soul. The musicians that accompanied her are also very talented especially the gentleman on the violin. This was a performance about the love of music, fantastic.
