Palisades Symphony will host its next concert, “Three Tenor Titans: A Night of Opera Favorites,” on Sunday, September 7, beginning at 7 p.m.
“This program is inspired by the groundbreaking Three Tenors concerts, when Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo and José Carreras united onstage in Rome on the eve of the 1990 FIFA World Cup Final,” read information shared by the symphony. “That performance reached an unprecedented 800 million viewers worldwide—making it the most-watched classical concert in history—and redefined classical music’s reach by blending opera arias, Neapolitan songs and popular standards in spectacular outdoor venues.”
Additional appearances by the trio took place at World Cups in Los Angeles (1994), Paris (1998) and Yokohama (2002).
“Now, we bring that same spirit to life with our own trio of phenomenal tenors: Wiyoung Oh, Doo (David) Suk Yang and Jungrok Oh—singing side by side with the Palisades Symphony in a thrilling, crowd-pleasing celebration of vocal and orchestral favorites,” read the statement. “With timeless music, powerhouse voices and a spirit of joyful collaboration, this concert is sure to be a hit with opera lovers and newcomers alike.”
The concert will take place at Immanuel Presbyterian Church, which is located at 3300 Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles. Admission is free, but donations are welcomed.
