[ ClassicalX ] Celebrate Christmas with Il Divo!

As an extra special festive treat, this year Carlos, David, Seb and Urs will be wishing you all a very Merry Christmas with a host of gigs in London, America and Canada.

We are very pleased to bring you the exclusive news that Il Divo will be celebrating the holiday season with a series of intimate shows this December!

This is a first-ever for Il Divo who have performed Christmas songs in front of The Queen and past U.S. Presidents, but never before a concert audience.

The tour will kick off in London on December 7th and travel to Toronto, Atlantic City, Wallingford, CT and New York City!

Il Divo will be performing songs from The Christmas Collection and The Promise, including stunning renditions of Silent Night, White Christmas and O Holy Night as well as inspirational favorites such as Amazing Grace and Ave Maria. They are preparing their own new Christmas songs, too.

The shows will also feature some very special guests across different cities, such as Tony and Emmy Award winning soprano Kristin Chenoweth, international violin virtuoso Vanessa Mae, Canadian jazz sensation Holly Cole, violinist Anne Akiko Meyers & rising new soprano Camilla Kerslake, who will each join Il Divo onstage for several duets and collaborations, as well as their own solo performances!

Revered local orchestras of 37 players will also be accompanying each show such as the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra in London and the Opera Orchestra of New York. It truly promises to be an unforgettable evening.
