99- “Dream a Little Dream of Me” and Diana Krall 

Standards Rating 9, Difficulty Rating 5 

“Dream a Little Dream of Me” remains one of the most enduring standards because of its gentle melody, romantic lyric, and the effortless way it creates a feeling of warmth and nostalgia. The tune has a natural, lullaby-like flow, moving gracefully between its dreamy A section and the more open, hopeful lift of the bridge. Its charm lies in its simplicity — nothing feels forced or overly ornate, yet every phrase is memorable. This timeless quality is what makes the song so appealing to artists across generations, including Diana Krall. In her intimate trio performance, she leans into the song’s built-in softness, letting the melody unfold with quiet ease. Her understated vocals, paired with the light touch of guitar and bass, keep the focus on the song’s natural beauty rather than embellishment. The result is a version that feels both classic and personal, capturing the tune’s enduring tenderness.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
