Romanza to perform Valentines Concert at Harbourfront Theatre

Summerside PEI, Dec 2007: Singing of love, conquest, betrayal and heartache, from a melting serenade to a spine tingling 'high C', the tenor voice romances. Romance is the art of the tenor. Philip Grant, Todd Jang and Frederik Robert have been identified as "three talented, young, classically trained lyric tenors who have separately been delighting audiences across North America and Europe."  Now together as ROMANZA, they have been winning people's hearts everywhere they perform, and Summerside will be no exception when they appear in concert at the Harbourfront Theatre on Wednesday, February 13. 

Robert Campbell, Theatre Director of Maple Ridge Arts Centre wrote about ROMANZA, "Their performance here at the ACT was the best attendance we have had for a classical performance".  They have also been profiled on CBC Radio2, The New VI, CKBD 600,  A Channel and CFAX and have quickly earned a reputation as fun loving, approachable and talented artists. In an interview on CKBD 600 Rafe Mair said, "their passionate and sensationally enchanting sound combined with their accessible style has been exciting music lovers of all levels. Keep your ears open for ROMANZA- you won't want to miss them." They are undeniable, joining in harmonies that swell and subside masterfully, charming you along the way with their obvious love of singing.

The three friends infuse their performances with their offstage camaraderie warming the audience with their intimacy and humour. ROMANZA have taken tenor repertoire to new heights by re-invigorating opera hits, Italian favourites, popular folksongs and well-loved ballads with their own irresistible and original arrangements for the contemporary audience. ROMANZA is the real deal. Authentic. Talented. Genuine.

Romanza will perform with Piano, Violin and Concert Bass at the 8pm Harbourfront Theatre performance. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the show will also be offered as part of a “romance package” which includes dinner for two at the Loyalist Lakeview Resort.

Tickets are available at the theatre box office or online at www.jubileetheatre.com .
