AN EVENING WITH IL DIVO IN SINGAPORE
In 2004, four of the greatest voices in the world emerged to spearhead an entire musical genre by bringing the sound of opera to the world of popular music.
Now, as one of the most successful groups in the world with over 22 million albums sold, IL DIVO have embarked on a massive World Tour which will be seen in 32 countries and 81 cities in 2009 including Singapore on September 21.
This will be the second time that IL DIVO is playing at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. AN EVENING WITH IL DIVO signals a striking departure from the group’s two previous tours.
For the show, Il Divo worked with Giorgio Armani on wardrobe and Creative Director William Baker, who is best known for styling some of the most iconic pop figures of the past decade, including Kylie Minogue, Victoria Beckham, Britney Spears, Garbage and Jamiroquai.
The Toronto Sun describes the visuals as “an enormous stage and video screen that would make even the biggest rock bands in the world jealous.” With a hi-tech stage and a digital light show, the sharp and seductive quartet is now able to showcase songs from their four studio albums against an even more spectacular backdrop.
