True jazz makes its appearance last night in the form of Diana Krall.

Five-time grammy award-winning jazz artist, Diana Krall graced the stage at the NTelos Portsmouth Amphitheater last night. Her performance was so beautiful, so touching, so honest. It was such a pleasure to hear live jazz again. Krall's contralto voice echoed throughout the venue and kept the audience completely entranced and silent. So silent, in fact, that you could hear a pin drop! What a great moment in such an intimate venue.

It all started with a lonely microphone dwarfed in a gorgeous blue light.

 

 

She took the stage and BAM!

 

 

 

 

 

Her band was as authentic classic jazz as it gets.

 

 

We are so lucky to have this beautiful and intimate venue in which to watch shows!
