DIANNE REEVES WITH THE SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY

Dianne Reeves, one of the preeminent female jazz vocalists in the world, joins the San Francisco Symphony for a performance of standards and holiday songs led by Sarah Hicks. A four-time Grammy Award winner, Reeves has recorded and performed extensively with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra and Wynton Marsalis, who said of Reeves, "She has one of the most powerful, purposeful and accurate voices of this or any time." The first Creative Chair for Jazz for the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Reeves recorded with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by Daniel Barenboim, and was a featured soloist with Sir Simon Rattle and the Berlin Philharmonic. Reeves appeared throughout George Clooney's award-winning film Good Night and Good Luck and performed every song on the Grammy-winning soundtrack. Reeves’ Concord Records debut, Beautiful Life – a blend of R&B, Latin, and pop within the framework of 21st-century jazz – is set for release in February 2014.
