Multi-platinum international music sensation Celtic Woman celebrates its newest studio album, VOICES OF ANGELS on its upcoming North American concert tour, which makes a stop at the Aronoff Center’s Procter & Gamble Hall on Thursday, April 20 at 7:00 PM.
Tickets are on sale now at www.CincinnatiArts.org, (513) 621-ARTS [2787], and the Aronoff Center Ticket Office. Group discount tickets for 10 or more are available by calling (513) 977-4157.
VOICES OF ANGELS (released November 18 on Manhattan/Caroline) debuted atop the Billboard World chart at #1 and has been riding high since its release, while the group’s DESTINY album–which also topped the chart upon its release–remains in the Top Ten more than 50 weeks after its release.
DESTINY is currently in the running for a Grammy Award in the category of Best World Music Album; it marks the group’s first-ever nomination. To celebrate the nomination, the group hosted a Facebook Live session. To view the conversation, click here.
In support of the VOICES OF ANGELS, the Celtic Woman foursome–featuring the angelic voices of Susan McFadden, Mairéad Carlin, Éabha McMahon and the breathtaking new Celtic violinist Tara McNeill–will embark on a four-month tour. Kicking off March 2 in Lakeland, FL, the 85-city trek will take Celtic Woman across the country before wrapping June 25 in Lynn, MA.
VOICES OF ANGELS contains some of the most popular songs from the Celtic Woman repertoire, along with several previously unrecorded tracks, all with stunning new orchestral arrangements recorded with the 72-piece Orchestra of Ireland. Celtic Woman has a remarkable 12-year-legacy of introducing the most talented singers and musicians from Ireland onto the world stage.
