Celtic Tenors Coming to the Capitol Center, 11/30

On November 30, the Capitol Center for the Arts is pleased to welcome the Celtic Tenors, the most successful classical crossover artists ever to emerge from Ireland. In 2000, following an impromptu audition at EMI in London, they were signed on the spot to an international record deal, a highly unusual event that was the talk of the music industry. Since then, they have played to sold out shows across the globe, garnering critical acclaim for not only their impeccable vocals, but the delightful humor, charm, and audience engagement they bring to their performances.

With a total album sales worldwide of over one million and a full international touring schedule, the Celtic Tenors have topped the charts in the USA, Canada, Germany, the UK and Ireland. Their recently released fifth album is a collection of songs from North America, by songwriters including Stephen Foster and Bob Dylan. Essentially a roots album with rich harmony driven songs, Celtic Tenors Daryl, James, and Matthew were privileged to work with the Grammy-winning team of Steve Lindsey, Dillon O'Brien and Dave Way.

The Celtic Tenors continue to "re-invent the whole tenor idiom" (Phil Coulter - composer of "Remember Me"), by pioneering a new style of 'cool' never before seen on the classical stage and by breaking the traditional stuffy tenor mould.

The Celtic Tenors' live show is an experience overflowing with vitality and variety from start to finish. The unique voices, charm and wit of Daryl, James and Matthew combine an emotive journey with a thoroughly uplifting experience. Equally at home performing to large festival crowds as to intimate concert halls and theatres, their voices and personalities always shine through alongside their undeniable Celtic charm.

This special Christmas performance will feature such classics as "O Holy Night" and "Silent Night."

To make your evening even more special, please join us for an exclusive pre-show reception in the historic Kimball House at 6pm. Tickets for the event are $59pp and include delicious, homemade food provided by T-BONES & Cactus Jack's, featuring a carving station, passed appetizers, assorted snack platters all served with a traditional and seasonal flair! Reception admission also includes beverages and reserved parking on Theatre Street.
