Six-time Grammy Award–winning composer Terence Blanchard Sat April 29, Allentown Symphony Hall

Six-time Grammy Award–winning composer Terence Blanchard brings his first opera to the Met after his Fire Shut Up in My Bones made history in the 2021–22 season. Bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green is the young boxer Emile Griffith, who rises from obscurity to become a world champion, and bass-baritone Eric Owens portrays Griffith’s older self, haunted by the ghosts of his past. Soprano Latonia Moore is Emelda Griffith, the boxer’s estranged mother, and mezzo- soprano Stephanie Blythe is the bar owner Kathy Hagan. Yannick Nézet-Séguin returns to the podium to conduct Blanchard’s second Met premiere. Director James Robinson oversees staging, whose productions of Fire Shut Up in My Bones and Porgy and Bess brought down the house. Camille A. Brown, whose choreography electrified audiences in Fire and Porgy, also returns.

Join the Celebration! European Wax Center of Center Valley Celebrates 1 Yr Anniversary on April 28 with local business owner Nanci Emiliani

Join the Southern Lehigh Chamber of Commerce to celebrate European Wax Center of the Promenade Shops one-year anniversary!

European Wax Center began as a family-owned business in 2004 and strives to have every guest “Walk in and STRUT out” feeling confident.

Owner of several of the local stores, Nanci Emiliani fell in love with the brand and their mission in 2009.

She opened up her first location in 2015 and continued to expand the European Wax Center brand across the Valley by opening a third location at the Promenade in 2021. With Covid being still very prominent at that time, it made celebrating their official opening challenging.

“Many people do not realize that the national chain stores within our community are locally owned and operated”, stated Hayden Rinde, Assistant Vice President of the Southern Lehigh Chamber of Commerce.

“We love working with the local owners because they are so passionate about their involvement in the community.”

Nanci and her EWC team want to take the time and celebrate all the joys of being open for over a year with their staff, family, friends, guests and their amazing Promenade neighbors.

All are invited to join the celebration on Friday April 28th from 12:30 to 2:30. Along with snacks, drinks, and some amazing promotions and raffles, a ribbon cutting ceremony will be held at 1:30.

all at a bargain price.”

Clannad – In A Lifetime: The Farewell Tour at Penn’s Peak Sept 8 2023

Penn’s Peak is proud to announce Clannad – In A Lifetime: The Farewell Tour, Friday, September 8, 2023 at 8pm.

On 8th April 2022 BMG released IN A LIFETIME (THE IMMERSIVE COLLECTION), a new “immersive” mix from the original tapes of Clannad’s global smash hits including a new 2022 “immersive” mix of the ‘In A Lifetime’ single (originally released in 1985) with Bono of U2 as the featured vocalist.

 

Bono’s performance retains all its power and cultural importance with the new immersive mix giving the duet between Clannad’s Moya Brennan and Bono a new dimension of intimacy.

Further revelations within this new album concept come in the form of a reimagined version of ‘White Fool’. The socially challenging track features original guest vocals from Steve Perry, lead singer of Journey.

While the vocals remain true to the original, Pól Brennan from Clannad has completely rebuilt the track from the ground up with contemporary sympathetic and balanced programming, new drumming and instrumentation plus new vocal parts from Moya Brennan.

Not only does this bring the track beautifully up to date but also allows the immersive mix to push all the new elements to the maximum effect.

The two newly recorded songs ‘A Celtic Dream’ and ‘Who Knows (Where The Time Goes)’ were already expansive upon their initial debut on the band’s 2020 anthology “In A Lifetime” and are now given the immersive mix, these tracks produced by famed producer Trevor Horn take on a new dimension in 360 Reality Audio.

“The last songs as well, they have an expansive sound to start with so they’re just exploding in the room… I think the fans are going to love this.” (Pól Brennan)

The digital release of “IN A LIFETIME (THE IMMERSIVE COLLECTION)” creates the bridging gap between the band’s re-scheduled global farewell tour and the “IN A LIFETIME” anthology collection. Released in 2020, the anthology captures Clannad’s incredible and enduring body of work which has, over 16 studio albums, created a legacy that’s influenced a generation of fellow Irish musicians and artists.

“IN A LIFETIME (THE IMMERSIVE COLLECTION)” will be released digitally in 360 Reality Audio, a new immersive music experience utilizing Sony’s spatial audio technology, that will let listeners hear this incredible collection like never before. The 360 Reality Audio content will be available on Amazon Music Unlimited, Deezer and TIDAL, and can be enjoyed on any headphones and supporting speakers. For additional details visit: 360 Reality Audio official website

Clannad has collaborated with a diverse range of artists, including Bruce Hornsby, Steve Perry (Journey), JD Souther, Paul Young, Duke Special and most recently Denise Chaila but their most successful collaboration by far was with enthusiastic supporter and fan, Bono of U2. A fan of the band who declared singer Moya as “one of the greatest voices the human ear as ever experienced,” Bono duetted with the singer on Clannad’s 1985 hit single – and the song which gives this collection its title – In A Lifetime.

IN A LIFETIME is a multi-format, career-spanning anthology containing tracks from Clannad’s 50-year recording career. Available as 37 track 2CD set, 2CD deluxe, 2LP deluxe smokey vinyl and an expanded deluxe 100+ track bookpack as well as a digital version. Compiled in conjunction with Clannad band members.

The anthology will both delight and excite Clannad’s enormous and loyal fanbase as well as introduce this legendary, influential and culturally important band to a whole new generation of music fans.

Tickets on sale Friday, April 14th at 10:00AM at all Ticketmaster outlets, the Penn’s Peak Box Office and Roadies Restaurant and Bar.  Penn’s Peak Box Office and Roadies Restaurant ticket sales are walk-up only, no phone orders.

Damn the Torpedoes – Tom Petty Concert Experience Plays Penn’s Peak September 16, 2023

Damn the Torpedoes – Tom Petty Concert Experience Plays Penn’s Peak September 16, 2023

Over the years Damn The Torpedoes has evolved with more committed members and a deep understanding of the Tom Petty catalog.

The current lineup has been in place for several years and demonstrates the unspoken chemistry that makes a great band. The signature riffs, harmonies and underlying parts of the music are all there—along with some fresh twists that are often inspired in the moment. The resulting performances have audiences smiling, singing, dancing and mourning the loss of this great artist.

Damn the Torpedoes – Tom Petty Concert Experience Plays Penn’s Peak September 16, 2023

 

Rich Kubicz, who plays the role of Tom Petty in the show, has been playing guitar and singing since his early teens. By 2007, so many people had told him that he looked and sounded like Tom Petty that he decided to put together Damn The Torpedoes as a tribute to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

His goal was to play all of the studio hits, with live versions and some deep cuts to create the illusion of a Tom Petty concert performance. This meant that each band member would need to duplicate the sounds as found on the records.
