News from the Celtic Tenors/UK Concert Dates Spring 2011
The Celtic Tenors have established themselves as the most successful classical crossover artists ever to emerge from Ireland. In 2000, following an impromptu audition at EMI in London, the Celtic Tenors were signed on the spot to an international record deal, a highly unusual event that was the talk of the music industry.
The Celtic Tenors have just secured their 8th International record deal and work has already begun on this album, with a release date scheduled for Autumn 2011.
The year ahead will also see The Celtic Tenors tour in the US, Canada, Holland, UK, and the Middle East. The group will also do a three week tour in China in September 2011 with The Chinese State Orchestra.
While each of The Celtic Tenors have been influenced by the musical traditions from their own individual parts of Ireland, Daryl, James and Matthew show great flexibility in melding their voices to suit the appropriate classical, folk, Irish and pop genres. The Echo Award in Germany for Classical without Boundaries was presented to The Celtic Tenors in recognition of this fact.
