Plunge into the mesmerizing world of Whitney Houston’s famous hits under hundreds of flickering candles - an event not to be missed!
In a romantic atmosphere under the arches of a unique music hall, spectators will enjoy the diva’s legendary and favorite works: I will always love you, Queen of the Night, I wanna dance with somebody, Run to you and many others. The mysterious magic of the concert will be created by the connection between the musicians and the surrounding architecture, hundreds of flickering candles and a majestic organ.
Whitney’s voice will be sung by a solo violin - a unique event!
Whitney Houston is an American film and television actress, pop, soul, rhythm, and blues singer, producer, and fashion model. One of the most commercially successful performers in the history of world music.
A new reading of Whitney’s songs will give viewers vivid emotions from immersion in soul, rhythm, and blues stories.
From time immemorial, musical instruments have strived to bring their sound in the hands of performers closer to the human voice - and Mystery Ensemble managed to achieve this rapprochement as much as possible!
Soul (from the English soul - “soul”) is a genre of popular music of African-American origin that arose in the southern states of the United States in the 1950s based on rhythm and blues. Soul music adopted its characteristic emotional, ecstatic, sometimes exalted, “soulful” vocal style from jazz vocal improvisation.
Rhythm and blues (from the English rhythm and blues) is a type of famous African American music that includes elements of the blues. This term was created to designate modern music with an element of dance rhythm and popular trends in the music of African-American performers.
Do you agree that these are exciting directions for creating a tribute to classical instruments with the participation of percussion and bass?
At Mystery Ensemble concerts, you can and should dance, sing along, rock and get high!
