Five-time GRAMMY Award winner Dianne Reeves is the world’s pre-eminent jazz vocalist. Among her numerous accolades, Reeves has been designated an NEA Jazz Master by The National Endowment for the Arts — the highest honor the United States bestows on jazz artists. She has recorded and performed with Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, the LA Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Berlin Philharmonic, and other large ensembles. Dianne’s most recent release, Beautiful Life, features Gregory Porter, Robert Glasper, Lalah Hathaway, and Esperanza Spalding. The album was produced by Terri Lyne Carrington and won a GRAMMY for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. Reeves routinely tours the world with a variety of different projects.

For this date, she is joined in an intimate duo setting with the great Brazilian guitarist Romero Lubambo. Romero’s playing unites the styles and rhythms of his native musical heritage with fluency in American jazz traditions, to create a distinctive sound. He has collaborated with a wide variety of music icons over the past four decades including Diana Krall, Yo-Yo Ma, Kurt Elling, Kenny Barron, Michael Brecker, and others.
