Five-time Grammy winner Dianne
Reeves is the pre-eminent jazz vocalist in the world. As a result of her
breathtaking virtuosity, improvisational prowess, and unique jazz and
R&B stylings, Reeves received the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal
Performance for three consecutive recordings – a Grammy first in any
vocal category.
Featured in George Clooney’s
six-time Academy Award nominated Good Night, and Good Luck, Reeves won
the Best Jazz Vocal Grammy for the film's soundtrack. Reeves credits
include recording and performing with Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln
Center Jazz Orchestra, appointment as first Creative Chair for Jazz for
the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the first vocalist to ever perform at
the famed Walt Disney Concert Hall.
Reeves’ most recent release Beautiful
Life, features Gregory Porter, Robert Glasper, Lalah Hathaway and
Esperanza Spalding. Produced by Terri Lyne Carrington, Beautiful Life won
the 2015 Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. In 2018 the National
Endowment for the Arts designated Reeves a Jazz Master — the highest
honor the United States bestows on jazz artists.
