Irish Tenor Anthony Kearns To Sing For Two Benefit Causes on Long Island

By:

March 18 Mr. Kearns will sing for the newly formed benevolent organization: Since You Went Away: A gentle touch for a soldier's mom. Since You Went Away was formed by eight young ladies whose goal is to reach out to the mothers of our troops, especially those serving overseas. This concert is planned as the first fund raiser for the organization, and a celebration of mothers of our troops across the country.

The concert will be held at St. Joseph's College, March 18, 7PM. Contact www.sinceyouwentaway.org to reserve your seats or phone 800.595.4TIX
March 20 Mr. Kearns will sing at Our Lady of Angels in Brooklyn to benefit the church and celebrate its mission and parish. Our Lady of Angels is located at 7320 4th Ave. Tickets are available on Mondays at 718.836.7200. A "Show and Dinner" gala is offered, or you may elect to attend the concert only.

Anthony Kearns, is founding member of The Irish Tenors, one of Ireland's most celebrated and longest running touring groups. Anthony tours three times annually with the trio.

Considered Ireland's Finest Tenor, Anthony also has a thriving international solo career performing concert tours, oratorio, on opera stages, and with some of the world's finest orchestras.

Anthony's opera credits include the lead in Faust for Opera Ireland; wrote The Irish Times, Kearns' subtle tonal shading and judicious use of well-supported head voice complements an exciting top register. Don José in an Irish production of Carmen, brought this review from The Irish Times: Anthony Kearns proved a top-notch Don José, rising to each decisive moment with quality to spare. Last winter, Anthony performed Romeo for the Naples [Florida] Opera Company's production of Romeo & Juliet: Then and Now. Mr. Kearns returned to Naples in January 2011 for his U.S. full-scale grand operatic debut singing the lead tenor role of Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor. Said Opera Naples General and Artistic Director Steffanie Pearce: Voices like this don't come along very often. It's a voice-of-the-century voice.

Dedicated to the greater good, Anthony makes time every year to perform many benefit concerts for worthy causes both in Ireland and America. This past Memorial Day, he sang at the National Moment of Remembrance in Washington D.C. and at the Kennedy Center for the same holiday. He is currently performing for The Wexford Institute in support of their work for Autism Awareness and assisting victims of childhood trauma, presenting benefit concerts from coast to coast. Plans are underway to take that tour international in the fall. Anthony recently performed at the New Zealand Embassy at a prestigious event jointly benefiting the USO Wounded Warriors organization and Thanks USA, a non-profit organization whose goal is to assist the families of our troops.
