Nana Mouskouri has lined up three special UK shows for September.
To celebrate her 80th birthday, Nana will arrive in the UK in the autumn to play London's Royal Albert Hall on September 25, seven years since she last played there. She also performs at Glasgow’s Royal Concert Hall on September 29 and Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall on September 30.
She said:
"Singing was my first love and always helped me to breathe. After celebrating 50 years of my 'White Rose of Athens' three years ago, I realised 2012 was 50 years since I worked with Quincy Jones and recorded my first album in New York. In 2013 it was 50 years since 'The Umbrellas of Cherbourg' with Michel Legrand and 50 years since the Eurovision Song Contest in London with the BBC.
This year, 2014, it will be 50 years since I worked with Harry Belafonte and had my first stage experience in the USA and Canada. So I thought the journey would be worth celebrating, singing songs from my favorite composers and writers, for all my dear friends, the audience.
And I am so proud and happy to share the stage now with my daughter Lénou. It is like a dream come true.
Happy Birthday to all who have given me the answer that love still exists.”
As mentioned, Nana will be accompanied on the tour by her four French musicians and her daughter Lénou who has had her own singing career in France since 2001.
Nana Mouskouri Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows:
Thu September 25 2014 - LONDON Royal Albert Hall
Mon September 29 2014 - GLASGOW Glasgow Royal Concert Hall
Tue September 30 2014 - MANCHESTER Bridgewater Hall
