A Canadian singing a Lerner and Loewe song based on a George Bernard Shaw play wouldn't suggest Brazilian music to most people. But Diana Krall gives "I've Grown Accustomed to His Face" a bossa-nova slant and turns it into a highlight of both her studio CD, "Quiet Nights," and her concert DVD, "Live in Rio." Given the elasticity of a Brazilian rhythm, this ballad from "My Fair Lady" grows slow and whispery, allowing the British Columbia vocalist to explore the no man's land between temptation and resistance.
