These dynamic, engaging and celebrated artists have shared the stage previously in concert work, and are now poised to make their trio debut for a series of events around Cape Breton this summer, highlighted by two performances, June 4 and 5, at the Highland Arts Theatre in Sydney. The group is also booked at St. Matthew’s United Church to kick-off Inverness Week.
The real magic of this ensemble is created by combining their exciting voices and unique personalities, along with the broad range of music and experience they bring with them. The Highland Tenors presented a preview of their sound as special guest artists for Destination Cape Breton Association’s Industry Day Gala, held last month at the Gaelic College. The audience immediately stood to their feet before the last note had time to ring in The Great Hall of Clans.
