List of Jackie Evancho concert tours

[17][18][19] At each tour stop, Evancho sang generally 11 songs from Dream With Me after a brief rehearsal with a local orchestra on the day of each performance.

[20] The official tour began with the Sun Valley Orchestra on July 31, 2011,[21] where one critic wrote: "If you've ever wondered what an angel sounds like, you got your answer Sunday evening ... pure, joyous, unaffected notes".

[22] This was followed by performances in Atlanta,[23] at the Ravinia Festival (with Conrad Tao as pianist),[24] in Omaha,[25] Dallas,[26] and with her hometown Pittsburgh Opera on October 16, 2011.

Conductor Antony Walker took the opportunity to introduce her fans to the Pittsburgh Opera's chorus and soloists, who performed several numbers from Verdi, Bizet and Puccini along with Evancho's repertoire.

[27] Evancho made her New York City solo concert debut at Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center on November 7, 2011.

[40] The young soloist's contract with Fresno Grand Opera contained the unusual requirement that the Saroyan Theatre "provide colored pencils in her dressing room.

[46] A reviewer from The New York Times wrote of her 2011 Avery Fisher Hall concert that "In the first half of the show Ms. Evancho often receded, but toward the end of the night she found purpose, delivering 'A Time for Us' with punch, and closing out Sarah McLachlan's 'Angel' with what felt like real yearning, while the orchestra mostly stayed out of her way.

"[47] In an interview prior to their joint Las Vegas concert in December 2011, David Foster said of Evancho: "People just love her.

On this mini-tour, 20-year-old Canadian tenor Christopher Dallo,[57] who had beaten her in the 2009 David Foster talent search contest,[58][59] sang three solos to break up Evancho's sets, and duetted with her in "The Prayer".

[82] A second leg of the tour included a dozen stops from October 2013 to January 2014, three additional performances from April to June 2014 and three more in August 2014.

[100][101] A DVD version of the program was distributed as a pledge gift by PBS[102][103] and was included as part of the deluxe set of Songs from the Silver Screen from Target stores.

[104] A TV Worth Watching reviewer stated, "From a Willy Wonka number ('Pure Imagination'), to Phantom of the Opera's almost-epic 'Music of the Night,' the young singer has it all under control.

[106] A reviewer at Evancho's Denver concert noted the audience's enthusiasm and wrote that she "displayed her famous combo of poise and articulation".

"[79] She "got a standing ovation at Miami's Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, where she displayed her stunningly mature vocal power, phrasing and range.

[124] Before the tour began, Evancho filmed her third PBS concert special at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania before a live audience, which included all of the songs from Awakening.

[125] For this tour, at most venues, Evancho useds pre-recorded accompaniment enhanced by approximately a dozen live musicians, normally led from the piano by music director Peter Kiesewalter.

In 2015, stops were in California, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Virginia, Tennessee, Connecticut, Maryland, Oregon, Massachusetts, Indiana, Kentucky, Colorado, Michigan and Ontario, Canada.

[131] Robin Leach reviewed Evancho's January 2015 concert in Las Vegas, writing: "She's still got the voice of an angel.

[173] Stops in 2016 included venues in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, South Carolina (with special guest Chris Mann), New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Kentucky and Florida.

It peals with the purity of bells and lofts tones that shimmer with celestial iridescence" but that her performance lacks "an apparent interpretive style or emotional connection to the material".

[180] Kirk Stauffer wrote for Back Beat Seattle that, at The Triple Door, Evancho "had a mature stage presence and shared personal experiences between songs.

[181] Evancho gave this nationwide concert tour to promote her seventh studio album Two Hearts.

[citation needed] The release was Evancho's first that included her own songwriting (other than her contribution in 2010 to the lyrics of the title song of Dream With Me).

[214] As in previous years, Evancho also included Christmas songs in the set list of her November and December concerts.

[213] She made stops in Arizona, California, Texas, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida and Illinois at the end of the tour in early 2019.

[249][250] The tour continued in 2019 and early 2020, with stops in Pennsylvania, New York, California, Nevada, Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Utah and Colorado.

[254] On this tour, except as noted below, Evancho was accompanied by a small ensemble led from the piano by music director Jorn Swart.
