Moments Worth Listening For

The way the strings swell like a slow tide behind the Portuguese lyrics of Este Seu Olhar.

The gender-flipped intimacy of The Boy From Ipanema where the tempo feels like a humid afternoon stroll.

The breathy, almost-whispered delivery of the final notes on Quiet Nights that lingers in the air.

Where This Album Departs

How does Quiet Nights sound next to the rest of Diana Krall's catalogue?

Orchestral Arrangement+1.4σ

The production is pushed notably harder into orchestral arrangement than this artist usually allows.
