MONTREAL, Dec. 14 /CNW Telbec/ - Quebec singer Giorgia Fumanti who is of Italian origin will present a series of four performances with internationally renowned tenor José Carreras. Performances will be held at the Seoul Arts Centre in Korea (December 18th), at the Taipei Arena in Taiwan (December 31) and at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre (January 3 & 4).

The announcement was confirmed today by Michael Storrs who is the Catalan singer's agent. Mr. Storrs was absolutely mesmerized by Fumanti whenhe heard her perform in Miami during the taping of a concert that will be broadcast on PBS in early March. He introduced Giorgia to Carreras who was so taken by her exceptional voice that he invited her to join his Asian tour. Giorgia will perform five solo songs in addition to joining the famous tenor for two duets, one of which is the last encore.

During this tour, Giorgia Fumanti will take the opportunity to promote
her new CD in Taiwan, From My Heart, produced on the EMI Music label. This second album was amazingly successful as soon as it was launched in South Africa where it rapidly rose to first place in the charts. From My Heart will be available in Québec as soon it is launched on the international scene on March 6th. Giorgia Fumanti who literally fell in love with Québec, its vast green spaces and especially the warmth of its people, decided to settle here three years ago. This new series of concerts with Carreras adds another page in her already busy schedule which includes signing the National Anthem of Canada at the NHL All Stars game in Dallas on January 24th before undertaking an American tour during the summer of 2007. The singer's manager Maurice Velenosi is not astonished at the enthusiasm stirred up by Giorgia. "As soon as you hear Giorgia, you are immediately transported, not only by the sheer beauty of her voice, but mostly by the emotional charge it conveys..." This is without doubt an international career that has reached its cruising speed.
