National art rock act St. Vincent will perform with the Detroit Opera Orchestra this summer.
“St. Vincent LIVE with the Detroit Opera Orchestra” is set for Friday, July 24 at the Detroit Opera House.
The artist, née Anne Clark, has teamed up with conductor Jules Buckley for the tour, which is being billed as “her first limited run of orchestral performances” following the release of St. Vincent: Live in London!, which was recorded last year at London’s Royal Albert Hall with the 60-piece Jules Buckley Orchestra.
“Together, St. Vincent and Buckley have enlisted established local orchestras to forge new sonic worlds from her acclaimed albums, including Marry Me, Actor, Strange Mercy, St. Vincent, MASSEDUCTION, Daddy’s Home, and All Born Screaming — in what promises to be a series of unforgettable evenings of unique symphonic reinterpretations of songs from one of modern music’s most eclectic and acclaimed bodies of work,” a press release says.
Tickets go on sale to the general public starting at 10 a.m. on Friday, March 20 at Ticketmaster, detroitopera.org, and in person at the Detroit Opera House, with pre-sales available at 10 a.m. on Thursday, March 19.
