International Artist Music Type One-Off Event Theatre Classical Music Live Music Opera

Description


Madinat Theatre will host a very special evening with four-time Brit Classical Award Winner Russell Watson, accompanied by his pianist on Friday 26 January 2018.


Russell Watson never imagined he would someday be hailed as one of the world’s greatest classical singers.

Since being described by the New York Times as a performer “who sings like Pavarotti and entertains the audience like Sinatra” he subsequently released ten studio albums, each one receiving more critical acclaim than the last.

His debut album ‘The Voice’ shot up the UK charts where he held the number one spot for a world record 52 weeks. At the same time, Russell held the number one spot in the USA, making him the first British male to hold the accolade of a simultaneous transatlantic number one.

His second studio album ‘Encore’ soon followed, it became an even greater success selling almost two million copies worldwide. During this period Russell was rewarded with various awards including four Classical Brits.

During a career that has spanned fifteen years, Russell has performed for some of the world’s greatest figures including The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh (he is an ambassador for the Dukes Fellowship Charity), Prince Charles (he is an ambassador of the Prince’s Trust), the late Pope John Paul II who requested a private audience with Russell at the Vatican, former US presidents Bill Clinton and George W Bush, the Emperor of Japan, various European Prime Ministers, the King of Malaysia and Middle Eastern Sultans.

Among other appearances was a performance at the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in 2002 where he sang to a world wide audience of one billion; at Buckingham Palace for the Queen’s Coronation Gala Festival 2013; the opening ceremony of the World Games; the Rugby Union World Cup and at the Nou Camp Stadium for the 1999 Champion’s League Final with Montserrat Caballé.

The world renowned tenor will be performing songs from his albums and a selection of hits from his illustrious career. 

Captivating to watch and enchanting to listen to, Russell continues to wow audiences with his enigmatic and entertaining live performances.
