Australian born pianist, arranger, and composer Alan Broadbent began his career with Woody Herman's band as his pianist and arranger for 3 years. In 1972 he settled in Los Angeles, beginning a musical relationship with the legendary singer Irene Kral (no relation to Diana Krall). He was soon invited into the studio scene as a pianist for the great Nelson Riddle, David Rose and Johnny Mandel. He was part of Natalie Cole's famous "Unforgettable" CD and toured as her pianist and, eventually conductor. He wrote an orchestral arrangement for her second video with her dad, "When I Fall In Love", which won him his first Grammy. Alan won his second Grammy for an orchestral accompaniment written for Shirley Horn. He has been nominated for Grammys twice for best instrumental performance as a soloist and with his trio. Alan is Diana Krall's conductor for her occasional orchestra concerts and he is the conductor on her "Live in Paris" DVD. He has recently been the arranger on Glenn Frey's CD, "After Hours", and wrote six string arrangements for Sir Paul McCartney's "Kisses On The Bottom" with the London Symphony. ...
