Seabourn Cruises to Feature Diana Krall Performances

Adding to the culture and the majestic beauty of the voyage will be a spectacular special guest; the internationally acclaimed and honored Diana Krall. A multiple Grammy® Award winning jazz vocalist, Ms. Krall will be performing a series of intimate concerts for guests during the 10 day world class vacation aboard the Seabourn Sojourn, renowned throughout the world for unparalleled excellence and service.

The cruise sets sail on September 30, 2014 from Monte Carlo, Monaco, escorting travelers on elite daily excursions in breathtaking Mediterranean ports of call including Sanary-sur-Mer, St. Tropez, Portovenere, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Rome, San Remo, Marseille, Palamos and Palma de Mallorca before landing in Barcelona on October 10, 2014. A culinary expert will create a program to guide guests through the region's gastronomy during the days, while jazz concerts fill the nights. The luxury vacation is available to only 450 passengers, all of whom will travel in the Sojourn's opulent suites, attended to by their white glove service, cuisine and premier amenities.

Ms. Krall will perform throughout the second half of the voyage in a series of intimate concert settings spanning four nights, with an all-star band of internationally recognized jazz artists holding concerts during the first five nights of the journey. Vocalist Karrin Allyson, pianist Shelly Berg, trumpeter Randy Brecker, bassist John Clayton, reed player Anat Cohen, trombonist Wycliffe Gordon and drummer Jeff Hamilton represent the finest in contemporary jazz and will perform as a band each of those nights as well as breaking into different combos for additional afternoon and late night shows.

The extraordinary cruise combines world class jazz, the finest ship, a dream itinerary and the exclusivity of sharing this experience with only 450 passengers for the ultimate cultural and vacation experience.
