If you've ever been promised the world dear reader; here's the next best thing. An intimate evening of solo splendour with the devastating Rufus Wainwright - featuring nothing more than a grand piano, a folder full of rich, thoughtful songs, and that voice.
Audiences can expect music drawn from his entire career alongside the new record which features the arresting 'Who Are You New York?', Wainwright's ode to the city; the beautiful 'Martha', a spare and powerful track named for his sister; 'Les Feux d'artifice t'appellent' - the final aria from his debut opera Prima Donna; and 'Zebulon', a majestic song about one of Wainwright's high school sweethearts.
Do not delay in securing your tickets for this very special concert delivered by the man Elton John calls "the greatest songwriter on the planet." As we said earlier this year - if the 2008 Rufus Wainwright Australian tour is anything to go by - his return in 2010 will no doubt be the absolute musical highlight of your calendar year!
