Anthony Kearns of The Irish Tenors to Perform Charity Benefit Concert 3/26

World-renowned Tenor Anthony Kearns, a founding member of The Irish Tenors, and internationally acclaimed pianist Patrick Healy will perform at St. Ann's after a two-week, eight-city
tour with The Irish Tenors - considered Ireland's No. 2 musical export, next to U2. Healy, who has toured the world as an accompanist to great artists over the past 50 years, will travel from the United Kingdom to perform with Kearns.

This special charity concert performance to benefit St. Ann's Catholic Church in Haines City, FL. (Kearns has committed a large portion of ticket sales for the event to benefit the St. Ann's community and raise funds for the church.)

The March 26 Haines City concert comes on the heels of a number of ground-breaking solo engagements for Kearns: his recent American operatic debut at Opera Naples; the taping of his made-for-TV performance in Prague called "Halleluiah Broadway"-slated to air on PBS later this year; two solo performances at the Jan. inauguration of Gov. Bob McDonnell (VA), and other celebrity engagements

The event will be held at 7 p.m. ET, on Friday, March 26, 2010. (For tickets, call 863.422.4370.) at St. Ann's Catholic Church, 1265 Robinson Drive, Haines City, FL 33844-8552. Tel: 863.422.4370.

Kearns has been actively involved in charitable causes throughout his career. Most recently, on Saturday, March 20, Kearns and Healy headlined a private charity concert in Mclean, VA to benefit ThanksUSA - a nonprofit organization providing scholarships for military families.

St. Ann's congregation consists of a high percentage of Hispanic worshipers and has been a vital presence in the local community since its founding. With continued growth in the area, the church
has required fundraising efforts to continue an array of valuable services and expand accordingly. Kearns and Healy will certainly provide an inspiring show that will go a long way in benefiting the church and its future expansion plans.
