The prolific Hamilton-born artist remains far less visible than eminent colleagues and compatriots (like Jill Barber, for example). At least that&#8217;s my impression. What stands out about the albums by this discreet Ontarian (this is her eleventh for the Western market, and fifteenth if you add the albums released solely in Asia, where she is very popular) is the exquisite gentleness and tenderness that emanate from this light soprano voice, which is totally right, both musically and emotionally. The voice is reminiscent of Stacey Kent and Blossom Dearie. Since her first album, <em>&#8230;yesterday perhaps,<\/em> released in 2005, Diana has never strayed from her editorial line: a caressing jazz pop, led with finesse and elegance by regular partners (Reg Schwager on guitar, Don Thompson on keyboards and double bass), and impeccable phrasing that conveys simple, authentic emotions, without effusion. An interiority revealed with honesty and modesty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Soft Winds and Roses<\/em> is rooted in the classic songs of the 1960s and beyond. We get respectful readings of Elton John, Ron Sexsmith, Gordon Lightfoot, Don McLean, Leonard Cohen, Randy Newman, Joni Mitchell, and many more, lightly touched by blue harmonies and a few delicate improvisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once again, an irresistible flawless performance. Thank you Diana Panton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PS: I know that Diana studied French literature. If I may make a special request: why not mke an album in French one day, with that delicious pronunciation? It would be a sure-fire hit! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"soft winds and roses\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=OLAK5uy_kbcgRssW57w_fjVtRRZv0MWNCd6WvS59I\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diana Panton is the most beautiful Canadian voice you may not know about.
