IL VOLO, the critically acclaimed Italian teen pop-opera trio, has announced a 35-date U.S. tour that will include a February 24 stop at Playhouse Square's State Theatre for one 8 pm show. Tickets go on sale Fri., Aug. 21 at 11 am at playhousesquare.org and 216-241-6000, priced at $99; $75; $65; $50; $35 and $10 Smart Seats.

Special limited package prices are also available: the Grand Amore VIP at $225 (includes a premium seat; Meet-and-Greet; Photo with Il Volo; Q&A; Autographed VIP Laminate; and a merchandise item); or a Grand Amore Merchandise Package at $125 (includes a premium seat and autographed Il Volo merchandise item).

In anticipation to their upcoming tour, Il Volo (comprised of members Piero Barone, Ignazio Boschetto and Gianluca Ginoble) is set to release their fifth studio album Grande Amore at the end of September via Sony Music.

In addition, Public Broadcasting Television (PBS) will be airing starting this month IL VOLO: LIVE FROM POMPEII, a unique look of their recent concert at the legendary ruins of Pompeii. The spectacle marked the first time since 1971 that an artist (the last one was Pink Floyd) had performed at this famous site located near present-day Naples. IL VOLO: LIVE FROM POMPEII is part of special programming on PBS stations this month (check local listings).

Il Volo has released four albums so far, starting in 2011: two studio albums, a live album, and a Christmas album. Recently, Il Volo won the "Big Artist" Award at the prestigious Sanremo Music Festival in Italy, which led them to go 3x Platinum in Italy with their latest EP and contributed to their sold-out summer tour. They have been guests on numerous TV programs in the United States (The Tonight Show, The Today Show, Good Morning America, The Talk, American Idol, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and The Rachael Ray Show), and they also appeared on the final episode of HBO's hit series Entourage.

Il Volo sang with Barbra Streisand in 2012; performed at Madison Square Garden in New York City as special guests of Laura Pausini; won a Billboard Latin Music Award; and toured the United States and Latin America with great success.
