Gregorian Masters of Chant (the Original) celebrates their 10th Anniversary this year!
Having just returned from their first-ever TV appearance in Japan, and with the new album "Masters of Chants VII" in stores, Gregorian is pleased to announce their 10th Anniversary tour.
Songs from the new album will be featured in the anniversary tour. The tour begins on Nov 16th in Hamburg, Germany and will lead the singing monks on a 24 date tour of German cities, as well as Austria, Switzerland and other Eastern European countries (see tour dates section for details.) With a great backing band, impressive light show, flames. laser and projection effects, this tour will once again demonstrate Gregorian's unique talents and glorious harmonies.
We are pleased to announce that the beautiful voice and fairy-tale appearance of the delightful Amelia Brightman will be featured in the tour! A long friendship unites the enchanting English woman with the choir, as they have done many previous projects together. Not only does Amelia share singing credits with the monks, she also shares many writing credits for the original compositions with the creative team behind Gregorian.
The phenomenon: Gregorian
Multi award-winning producer, Frank Peterson, never dreamed that his vision of fusing contemporary music with the chants of the Gregorian monasteries would lead to such great success! It's aroused public interest in the genre itself, has created many imitators and has been very successful commercially in many different countries.
Taking stock through the 10 year history of Gregorian? With more than 4.8 million in CD and DVD sales, and more than a million in attendance at the live shows to date?
The dream has become a success. |
