the same as watching Diana perform live, but to get an impression
of this artist - other than a written description or a sample
of the sounds of her music - here is a page with some pictures
of Diana Burta. Visit the photossection to get a glimpse of her bubbly personality.
Jazz
singer and pianist
Born
in 'University City' Groningen, up in the north of The Netherlands,
jazz entertainer and pianist Diana Burtahas by now established
her existence as a first class international artist.
With
her attractive, yet complete, professional appearance, she has reached
the status of a unique personality in showbiz. Diana's happy, swinging
performance immediately clicks with her audience as she has only
one intention: to make people feel happy.
Her
extensive repertoire contains all the elements for this. From intimate
ballads or bluesy songs through swinging, medium temp "talk songs",
she works the show up to a climax by scatting well-known R&B tunes.
Her changing moods, always reflected by her handpicked accompanying
side-men, make her communicate with everyone who listens to her.
Swinging
and entertaining
Simple
as it seems, swing is the constant drive for Diana. She finds herself
entirely identified by Duke Ellington's expression: "It don't
mean a thing if it ain't got that swing."
Diana
recorded two albums in The Netherlands and the CD 's Wonderful in
London, UK. Her latest CD is called As Time Goes By, which you can
order via the 'contact' section of this website.
A
good impression of what Diana has to say: sincere intimacy as well
as the striking ability to make your body move on her swinging,
playing and singing. And yet, you really have to watch her live
in order to enjoy all of her spontaneous, entertaining capacities.
