How They Got Together
The friends met over a few
pints of Guinness in McSorleys Pub in Dublin, to talk about forming The
Three Irish Tenors. They brought with them a wealth of diverse talents,
energy, optimism and a sense of humor. Their aim: to sing songs and arias
that would appeal to all generations, that could cross cultural and national
boundaries and would be of superb quality. Together with their musical
director, David
Wray, the three tenors created programs of their favorite songs and
arias, not only from Ireland but also from a truly international repertoire.
Since their first performance
this talented and exciting trio has performed to delighted, packed houses
throughout Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States of America,
and captivated audiences with their infectious Irish charm. Now on
their seventh American tour, the journey for this young trio is proving
to be not only a great success, but also a great joy. At the start of the
seventh tour a member of the original trio withdrew for personal reasons,
and was replaced by Brian Dunphy, an exceptional artist from a famous music
hall family. The Irish Divas round out the tour. They
are three of Ireland's best known and most beloved woman vocalists, and
Jacqueline Whelan is an internatinal sensation on the traditional Irish
harp.
So celebrate the holidays
with a genuine Irish Christmas! Filled with songs of the season such as
"The Little Drummer Boy," "Adeste Fideles," "Silent Night," "Saviour's
Day" and "O Holy Night," Christmas from Dublin is full of
the warmth, charm, and music, direct from the Emerald Isle, that continues
to enchant audiences throughout the world.
