The Celtic Tenors |
The Celtic Tenors, the most successful classical crossover group to come out of Ireland, kick-off the Cascade Youth Symphony’s season at Benaroya Hall on Saturday afternoon, November 20.
“We’ll be blending the Celtic Tenors with our youth symphony throughout most of the concert and are just thrilled to have this prestigious group join us,” says Gerry Jon Marsh, Music Director of the Cascade Youth Symphony Orchestras. Marsh is also a professor of music at Seattle Pacific University.
The event will include several popular Irish ballads, such as “Danny Boy,” “Caledonia,” and “Shenandoah.” Other songs will blend the beautiful voices of the Celtic Tenors with the talented young local musicians of the orchestra. Maintaining the theme of the afternoon, the youth symphony will perform separately “The Irish Suite” by LeRoy Anderson.
The concert serves as CYSO’s fall concert, now regularly held at Benaroya Hall. Tickets for the event start at $17 and are available through the Benaroya Hall ticket office or by calling 206-215-4747 or 1-800-866-4747.
