Placido Domingo to perform in Istanbul

ISTANBUL

Spanish tenor Placido Domingo will hit the Istanbul stage on Jan 19, 2015.

One of the greatest tenors of the century, with more than 3,600 performances over 50 years, Placido Domingo will give a concert in Istanbul on Jan. 19, 2015. The concert, jointly organized by Map Communications, Pozitif Live and Piu Music, will take place at Ülker Sports Arena.

Spanish singer and conductor Domingo has so far released more than 100 albums and won nine Grammy Awards. He closed this year’s iTunes Festival in London on Sept. 30 and last month released a new album entitled “Encanto del Mar,” a delightful collection of Mediterranean songs that treats listeners to the singer basking in a mellow, relaxed and reflective mood. The album showcases Domingo’s signature musical versatility and his attention to detail and every nuance of the vocal line.

The tenor is coming to Istanbul as part of his world tour, after visiting New York, Berlin, London, Madrid, Rio de Janeiro and Milan.

Tickets for the concert are available at Biletix.
