"Her voice is impressive in its size, range and brightness. . . . She uses her twirling vibrato as rhythmic punctuation. After drawing out a note, she dispenses that vibrato like the cherry on a sundae."
—New York Times
Long regarded as one of contemporary jazz’s leading vocalists, Diane Schuur is as eclectic as she is brilliant. She has received two Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. The artist has been blind from birth; she was gifted with perfect pitch and a three-and-a-half-octave vocal range, and she initially taught herself piano by ear.
Schuur’s latest recording, Running On Faith, was co-produced by Schuur and Grammy-winning saxophonist Ernie Watts. On this very personal musical statement, Schuur creates new versions of songs for which she has a deep-rooted affection. Performing on piano throughout, she arranges music by some of her favorite performers and songwriters, from Miles Davis to Carole King to Paul Simon.
