  • Platinum-Selling, Teen Vocal Sensation Jackie Evancho Performs at the Broward Center
    March 18, 2015 Media Contact: Savannah Whaley Pierson Grant Public Relations 954.776.1999 ext. 225 Jan Goodheart, Broward Center 954.765.5814 PLATINUM-SELLING, TEEN VOCAL SENSATION JACKIE EVANCHO PERFORMS AT THE BROWARD CENTER FORT LAUDERDALE – AEG Live and the Broward Center for the Performing Arts present platinum-selling, teen vocal sensation Jackie Evancho on Sunday, March 29 at 7 p.m. in the Au- Rene Theater at the Broward Center. Evancho dazzled American television audiences at age 10 by gaining global recognition with her stunning debut on NBC’s America’s Got Talent. She was immediately signed to Columbia Records where she released a string of successful recordings including O Holy Night, Dream with Me, Heavenly Christmas and Songs from the Silver Screen. Evancho’s latest studio album, Awakening, was released in September as the first under her recent worldwide recording agreement with Sony Music Masterworks imprint Portrait. Awakening garnered Evancho her fifth No. 1 position on Billboard Classical Crossover Albums chart and also debuted at No. 17 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. Her wide-ranging achievements caused Billboard to include her on its list of “music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21” in 2011 and 2012. Awakening signals some new directions for Evancho as she extends her stylistic reach with contemporary material such as “Think of Me” from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera, “The Rains of Castamere” from Game of Thrones, U2’s “With or Without You,” and original songs including the anthem “Take Me There”

Tickets are on sale now. The young soprano from Pittsburgh with the stunning voice won runner-up during “America’s Got Talent” by dazzling the judges and millions of viewers with her beautiful, soprano voice. Evancho launched her soon-to-be legendary career, signing with Columbia Records shortly thereafter. In a little over two years, Jackie’s unique, gorgeous, soprano voice has attracted millions of fans and her recordings have dominated the music and DVD charts. Now 13, Jackie has garnered the support of legendary music producers like David Foster and filmmakers such as Robert Redford. Billboard Magazine named Jackie to their list of music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21 in 2011 and again in 2012 because the soprano’s “spellbinding, operatic vocals possess a power and poignancy that often moves listeners multiple times her age to tears.” Jackie’s debut EP, “O Holy Night,” was released in November 2010 and became the year’s number one bestselling debut recording with sales exceeding one million copies and earning her a platinum certification.
