Evancho on tour in January 2013

The following is a description of Jackie Evancho's concert tours, not including Evancho's joint concerts with other artists (aside from the AGT Live Tour).[1] This article also does not list filmings for Evancho's television appearances (although it mentions her PBS specials in the narrative text) or include any information about her charity and private appearances.

After her 2nd place finish in the 5th season of America's Got Talent, Evancho participated in the America's Got Talent: Live Tour. She subsequently headlined solo tours to promote her albums Dream With Me (2011–2012), Heavenly Christmas (2011) and Songs from the Silver Screen (2012–2014), with stops in the U.S., Japan and Canada, accompanied by symphony orchestras. She has begun a tour promote her 2014 album, Awakening, with stops beginning in November 2014 and scheduled throughout 2015.

Evancho performed songs in both the first half and second half of each concert in which she participated, and bantered with host Jerry Springer.[5] A review of the first tour stop that Evancho participated in, on October 1, 2010 in Oakland, California, noted: "She has the gift to carry a note so nicely and so gracefully."[6]

Dream With Me Tour

Dream With Me In Concert
Tour by Jackie Evancho
Associated album Dream with Me
Start date July 31, 2011
End date June 8, 2012
Shows 18

The Dream With Me Tour, Evancho's first solo tour, promoted her album Dream with Me.[7] It consisted of a series of performances at indoor and outdoor concert venues with symphony orchestras; most of the 2011 concerts were conducted by Constantine Kitsopoulos.[8][9] Unofficially, the tour began on February 18, 2011, when Evancho performed most of the songs that would be included in Dream With Me in Houston, Texas, with the Houston Chamber Choir.[10] On March 12, she sang these songs at the 2011 Festival of the Arts Boca.[11][12] Evancho filmed a solo concert television special for the PBS Great Performances series[13] that included nearly the same songs as the CD and first aired in June 2011 on PBS stations[14] and later released on DVD, titled Dream With Me In Concert.[15][16] The program was hosted by the album's producer, David Foster. It was the most frequently broadcast of the Great Performances series in 2011, and Evancho was the youngest soloist ever on the series.[17][18][19]

At each tour stop, Evancho sang generally 11 songs from Dream With Me after a brief rehearsal with a local orchestra on the day of each performance.[20] The official tour began with the Sun Valley Orchestra on July 31, 2011,[21] where one critic wrote: "If you've ever wondered what an angel sounds like, you got your answer Sunday evening ... pure, joyous, unaffected notes".[22] This was followed by performances in Atlanta,[23] at the Ravinia Festival (with Conrad Tao as pianist),[24] in Omaha,[25] Dallas,[26] and with her hometown Pittsburgh Opera on October 16, 2011. Conductor Antony Walker took the opportunity to introduce her fans to the Pittsburgh Opera's chorus and soloists, who performed several numbers from Verdi, Bizet and Puccini along with Evancho's repertoire.[27] Evancho made her New York City solo concert debut at Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center on November 7, 2011.[9][26] The tour was then interrupted by three concerts, described below, to promote Evancho's album Heavenly Christmas. The last appearance in 2011 was in Las Vegas on December 29, 2011, where Evancho headlined a concert with David Foster and Kenny G, featuring mostly songs from Dream With Me, but also a few Christmas songs.[28]

After a solo concert in Tokyo on January 13, 2012 at the Bunkamura concert hall with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, featuring songs mostly from Dream With Me,[29] Evancho resumed her Dream With Me Tour in the U.S. on January 28, 2012 at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, in California.[30] Beginning with this appearance, Evancho's solo concert performances were conducted by John Mario Di Costanzo,[31] and her duet partner was tenor Josh Page,[32] who sang two or three solos to help break up Evancho's set and duetted with her in "The Prayer".[33][34] Durning the tour, she generally travelled with her mother and brother Jacob.[35] The next six tour stops were in California[36][37][38] and Utah.[39] The young soloist's contract with Fresno Grand Opera contained the unusual requirement that the Saroyan Theatre "provide colored pencils in her dressing room."[40][41] Evancho's three February tour stops were ranked the tenth top-grossing tour by Billboard for the relevant week.[42] In June 2012, she concluded the tour with performances in Alpharetta, Georgia[33] and Newark, New Jersey, with the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra.[43][44]

Reaction

In reviewing her Pittsburgh Opera concert, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review called her voice "beautifully in tune and well supported. ... Evancho's sincerity of delivery was affecting".[45] A reviewer from The New York Times wrote of her 2011 Avery Fisher Hall concert that "In the first half of the show Ms. Evancho often receded, but toward the end of the night she found purpose, delivering 'A Time for Us' with punch, and closing out Sarah McLachlan’s 'Angel' with what felt like real yearning, while the orchestra mostly stayed out of her way."[46] In an interview prior to their joint Las Vegas concert in December 2011, David Foster said of Evancho: "People just love her. She’s carrying the whole show herself, she’s so professional. ... I don’t want to say I’m riding her coattails, but she’s very comfortable doing it on her own. ... I’ve never seen anything like it ever. ... She’s phenomenal."[47] Robin Leach, writing for the Las Vegas Sun, commented on that concert: "Jackie was beyond brilliant!"[48] A San Francisco Chronicle review of Evancho's 2012 concert in San Francisco judged her singing "an impressive thing to witness, and Evancho's technical precision and enormous range only serve to make it seem less fluky. The girl can sing"; but the reviewer felt that "every selection sounded alike".[37]

Start date August 19, 2012
End date August 10, 2014
Shows 42

Evancho's tour to promote her album Songs from the Silver Screen began on August 19, 2012, at Bunkamura Orchard Hall, near Tokyo, Japan, with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra. Her brother Jacob Evancho duetted with her there on the song "I See the Light".[63][64] On August 25, 2012, she continued the tour with stops in 22 cities in the U.S. (plus Toronto), starting with a performance in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at the Mann Center with The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia.[65][66] Other appearances followed in Arizona,[67] Colorado,[68] Texas,[69] California,[61][70] Georgia,[71] Florida,[61] Minnesota,[72] Illinois,[73] Massachusetts[74] New Jersey,[75] Pennsylvania,[76] Canada,[77] Nevada,[78] Rhode Island,[79] Maryland,[80] Florida[81] and Ohio,[82] ending in Lewiston, New York in June 2013.[83]

A second leg of the tour included a dozen stops from October 2013 to January 2014, three additional performances from April to June 2014 and three more in August 2014. It began with a stop in Massachusetts,[84] followed by eight stops in California, Oregon and Washington, two concerts in Florida and one in Arizona.[85][86] The next three concerts were in Michigan,[87] Wisconsin[88] and Indiana,[89][90] and the last three stops were in the northeastern US.[91][92][93]

At each tour stop, Evancho sang generally 13 songs, mostly from Songs from the Silver Screen, mixed with songs from her earlier recordings, particularly Dream With Me. As with previous tours, she usually rehearsal briefly with the local orchestra on the day of each performance.[20][94] In the first leg of the tour, trumpeter Jumaane Smith, who appeared with Evancho in her 2012 PBS special, Music of the Movies,[95] accompanied her in "The Summer Knows", from Summer of 42, and played two solos to break up her sets.[61][96] In the second leg of the tour, Evancho had no duet partner, and breaks were provided by orchestra selections. The conductor for both legs of the tour was John Mario Di Costanzo.[97][98] Evancho's mother accompanied her on the tour.[99][100]

Evancho's second PBS Great Performances concert special, called Jackie Evancho: Music of the Movies, began to air on PBS stations in August 2012, before the tour began. The special features nearly the same selections as Songs from the Silver Screen.[101][102] A DVD version of the program was distributed as a pledge gift by PBS[103][104] and was included as part of the deluxe set of Songs from the Silver Screen from Target stores.[105] A TV Worth Watching reviewer stated, "From a Willy Wonka number ('Pure Imagination'), to Phantom of the Opera's almost-epic 'Music of the Night,' the young singer has it all under control."[106] The special continued to be broadcast by PBS stations in 2013.[107]

Evancho in November 2013

Reaction

A reviewer at Evancho's Denver concert noted the audience's enthusiasm and wrote that she "displayed her famous combo of poise and articulation". But he noted "the burden of being a kid soprano, a true phenomenon. People pay a lot to see you and orchestras line up to get you on their stage. But still folks wonder if you really comprehend your life; if you shouldn’t be home ... eating ice cream instead of in Denver. ... And yet they rise to their feet, yet again, as you finish."[68] The reviewer for Naples Daily News gave Evancho an unqualified rave: "Her poise. Her control. Her range. ... Her voice and her performance exhausted all of the superlatives in the dictionary."[61] At her Baltimore stop: "Her pure and well-formed vowel sounds touched the hearts of everyone at the concert. Every year her voice seems to get better and better. Evancho clearly wished upon a star and asked for a beautiful singing voice."[80] She "got a standing ovation at Miami's Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, where she displayed her stunningly mature vocal power, phrasing and range."[85]

Awakening Tour

Jackie Evancho: Awakening
Tour by Jackie Evancho
Associated album Awakening
Start date November 22, 2014
Shows at least 27

Evancho's tour to promote her album Awakening began in November 2014.[125][126] Before the tour began, Evancho filmed her third PBS concert special at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania before a live audience, which included all of the songs from Awakening. The special began airing on PBS stations in November 2014.[127][128] For this tour, at most venues, Evancho uses pre-recorded accompaniment enhanced by approximately a dozen live musicians, normally led from the piano by her new music director, Peter Kiesewalter.[129] At some of the tour stops, as noted below, musicians from existing orchestras are used, while at most, the musicians are specially assembled for the particular venue.[98]

The tour began with stops in New Jersey, Costa Rica, California, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida. Further stops are scheduled in Virginia, Tennessee and Ontario, Canada. After a 2015 summer break, the tour is scheduled to continue in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland, Oregon, Washington, Massachusetts and Indiana. The concert selections "feature the lush classical-crossover compositions for which [Evancho] has become known, as well as the more contemporary material that can be found on her new album".[130] Robin Leach reviewed Evancho's January 2015 concert in Las Vegas, writing: "She’s still got the voice of an angel. It’s remarkable, and her power is growing as she grows up. [She] had the audience on its feet with wild applause at the end of every song ... from her new and past albums."[131]
