Katie Melua To Appear With Plácido Domingo

The world premiere of two award-winning artists together on stage promises to be a magical night of music. Chart topping singer songwriter Katie Melua joins world-famous tenor Plácido Domingo at the M.E.N Arena on Wednesday 2 May. Katie, who wowed M.E.N Arena audiences in January 2006, joins the Spanish tenor on stage at his only UK show of 2007 for a very special guest appearance.

Katie will perform three of her best-known songs and duet with the maestro in this unique collaboration of classical and modern music.

Katie’s first two albums, Call Off The Search and Piece By Piece spawned the hits The Closest Thing To Crazy and Nine Million Bicycles and have established the young singer songwriter as the biggest selling female artist in Europe where she has sold in excess of seven million albums.

Marking his first solo appearance in this country for over a decade, Placido Domingo, who rose to prominence as one of The Three Tenors - alongside Luciano Pavarotti and Jose Carreras - has been hailed in the international press as “The King of Opera” and “The greatest operatic artist of modern times”.

Tickets, priced £45, £65 & £95, are available online at Men-arena.com.
