Jackie Evancho Awakening Tour
Saturday, September 19, 2015
8:00 pm
Mortensen Hall
Featuring musicians of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra
Jackie Evancho’s first performance on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” in 2010 left audiences astonished that such a perfect, beautiful, soprano voice could come from a 10-year-old girl. In a little over two years, Jackie’s unique, gorgeous, soprano voice has won her millions of fans and her recordings have dominated the music and DVD charts. Now 14, Jackie has garnered the support of legendary music producers like David Foster and filmmakers such as Robert Redford. Billboard Magazine named Jackie to their music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21 list in 2011 and again in 2012 because the soprano’s “spellbinding, operatic vocals possess a power and poignancy that often moves listeners multiple times her age to tears.”
Jackie’s new album “Awakening” came out on September 23, 2014. Backed by a stellar lineup of musicians from the Hartford Symphony Orchestra, Jackie’s September 19, 2015 concert will feature a mix of her favorite holiday songs, songs from “Awakening” and classics from her extensive repertoire.
