Sinfonia Gulf Coast — the region’s only fully professional symphony orchestra led by Music and Artistic Director Demetrius Fuller — is launching its 12th season on a high note on with ‘Sinfonia Cabaret – An Evening with Chris Mann’ on Tuesday, October 24, 2017.
Presented by Pish Posh Patchouli’s, the event features a culinary experience and a live performance in a true cabaret setting.
The evening begins at 5:30 p.m. with a four-course wine dinner at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse, followed by an intimate cabaret-style performance at Upstairs.
Tickets are $195 per person and include dinner, wine, valet, gratuity and performance. Proceeds from the event will benefit Sinfonia Gulf Coast and its music education programs.
Chris Mann’s crystalline voice has garnered both his place as a finalist on NBC’s ‘The Voice’ and rave reviews of both his PBS “Live in Concert” performance and lead role in the 25th anniversary tour of “The Phantom of the Opera.” His albums “Roads” and “Constellation” topped Billboard and Amazon charts. With more than a thousand concert and symphony performances around the globe, his golden voice and entertaining stories dazzle audiences across the country.
His special performance for Sinfonia will take music lovers on a magical journey from Broadway to contemporary standards to the Great American Songbook.
