Russel Watson - Burswood Theatre
Due to a scheduling conflict, world renowned tenor Russell Watson’s Australian tour, originally planned for this November, has been moved to February next year.
Consequently Russell Watson will now perform in Perth at Burswood Theatre on Tuesday 28 February. Tickets for the original Perth show will be valid for the new February date.
World renowned tenor Russell Watson is confirmed to tour Australia in February on the 'La Voce Tour'.
The February concert tour will celebrate this new release of his album LA VOCE and a return to touring after a long battle with brain cancer.
In 2008 the Salford born tenor finished radiotherapy for the pituitary tumour that saw him undergoing emergency surgery and he decided to embark on a return to music. He soon found that his treatment had given him not just a fresh outlook on the world, but a whole new, deeper, richer voice. "The thing that I most wanted to achieve has happened. The voice is back. And not only that, but the infrastructure that generates the noise I make, the strength and stamina I need to perform all that incredible material is back. It's been a long road and it's been hard work, but we're there..."
The new album, Russell's Ninth, was recorded in June 2010 with the Roma Sinfonietta. Stronger, more driven and powerful, his renditions of some of the most loved songs of all time, including "La Viva Senza Te", Mario Lanza's "Arrivederci Roma" and "Speak Softly Love" (the theme from The Godfather) are as impressive as you'd expect from a man singing with, literally, a new lease of life after overcoming two life-threatening brain tumours.
