From This Moment On by Diana Krall.
There is a particular kind of pleasure in hearing Diana Krall lean into a standard, and "From This Moment On" spreads that pleasure generously across four sides of wax. This German pressing gives the music room to breathe, letting Krall's phrasing and touch unfold at the unhurried pace they deserve. It is a record built for the long listen, the sort of album you put on and let run while the evening settles.
Side A opens with "It Could Happen To You," an invitation that sets the tone before easing into the gentle sway of "Isn't This A Lovely Day." From there, "How Insensitive" draws the mood inward, its bossa lilt carrying a quiet, contemplative weight that shows how comfortably Krall moves between the buoyant and the reflective.
Side B brings the title track into focus, with "From This Moment On" nestled between the swinging "Exactly Like You" and the warm confidence of "I Was Doing Alright." This is Krall in fine form, treating each of these standards with the care of someone who clearly loves the material, never rushing a line, never overplaying a phrase.
Turn to Side C and the emotional temperature deepens. "Little Girl Blue" aches in the way only that song can, while "Day In Day Out" picks the energy back up before "Willow Weep For Me" closes the side on a note of tender melancholy. It is a beautifully sequenced stretch, one that rewards close attention and a good pair of speakers.
The final side sends things off in style, with "Come Dance With Me" ushering in a lighter, more celebratory feel before the record signs off with the pairing of "It Was A Beautiful Day In August" and "You Can Depend On Me." Spread across a double album, these eleven pieces make a persuasive case for the enduring appeal of the songbook tradition, delivered by a voice and a piano that understand restraint.
For collectors who appreciate a well made European pressing, this is a satisfying addition to the shelf, an album that captures Diana Krall doing what she does best across a generous run of standards.
