Diana Krall On Luxury Cruise, Presented by Starvista Signature Cruises
Monte Carlo, Monaco (PRWEB) February 11, 2014 -- Entertainment Cruise Holdings, LLC launches a new luxury travel experience with StarVista Signature Cruises, an extraordinary vacation aboard the Seabourn Sojourn, renowned throughout the world for voyages featuring unparalleled excellence and white glove service. The inaugural StarVista Signature Cruise (http://www.starvistacruises.com) will set sail on September 30, 2014 from Monte Carlo, Monaco, escorting travelers on daily excursions in breathtaking Mediterranean ports of call including Sanary-sur-Mer (France), Marseille, Portovenere (Cinque Terre, Italy), Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Rome, San Remo, St. Tropez, Palamos (Spain) and Palma de Mallorca before landing in Barcelona on October 10th. The luxury vacation is available to only 450 passengers, all of whom will travel in the Sojourn’s opulent suites.
The crown jewel of the cruise will be the nightly performances by the world’s best jazz artists. Grammy® Award winner Diana Krall will hold a series of intimate concerts exclusively for cruise guests for four nights, while the finest musicians in contemporary jazz will perform for another five nights during the voyage. Krall herself is excited to be performing on the cruise.
“I’ve never been on a jazz cruise,” she says. “I’ve never been on a cruise except to Antarctica!”
Krall will be joined by vocalist Karrin Allyson, pianist Shelly Berg, trumpeter Randy Brecker, bassist John Clayton, reed player Anat Cohen, trombonist Wycliffe Gordon, drummer Jeff Hamilton and guitarist Anthony Wilson.
“I get to go on this cruise and play with John Clayton, Jeff Hamilton and Anthony Wilson,” adds the pianist/singer/songwriter. “How great is that?”
