Signature Series 2012: The Magic of Mancini
Thursday 23 February, 8pm
National Concert Hall
Hear some of famed film composer Henry Mancini's greatest classics including music from Moon River, Charade, The Pink Panther and The Thorn Birds all performed by the RTÉ Concert Orchestra featuring his esteemed Grammy-nominated daughter, Monica Mancini.
Already nominated for two Grammy's Monica Mancini has carved an impressive career as a recording artist and concert performer. Appearing on an array of film scores and having recorded with artists like Placido Domingo, Horace Silver, Josh Groban, Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson, Mancini now joins your very own RTÉ Concert Orchestra to perform some of her father's greatest compositions as well an array of her own arrangements.
"... she proved that even though she was singing her father's music, she certainly isn't riding on his coattails. She gave what might be considered definitive interpretations of Days of Wine and Roses and Moon River" -The Buffalo News
