Female Irish Musical Ensemble Celebrates Legacy Tour at St. Pete Theater
St. Petersburg, FLA (October 21, 2019) – Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum international music group ‘Celtic Woman’ commemorate 15 year milestone by touring 90 North American cities. The show is at the Duke Energy Center for the Arts – Mahaffey Theater on Sunday, March 1st at 7:00pm.
Ticket prices are $53.50-$100.50 and can be purchased online at www.TheMahaffey.com, by phone (727) 300-2000, or at the Box Office located at 400 1st St. South Downtown St. Pete. The Box Office is open 11am – 5pm Monday through Saturday.
The four fantastic ‘Celtic Woman’ soloists – Tara McNeill on fiddle and Irish harp who weaves her magic around the spine-tingling voices of Mairéad Carlin, Éabha McMahon and Megan Walsh – touch the hearts of a global audience with the centuries-old Irish tradition of telling stories through song: stories of the land, stories of love, and stories of dancing that bring a piece of Ireland to audiences everywhere. Joined by a stunning band of two pipers, two drummers, traditional step-dancers, and backing vocalists, ‘Celtic Woman’ celebrates Ireland’s rich musical and cultural heritage and combines the finest musical talent with epic stage productions to present a unique, inspiring live experience.
The band, favorites on PBS stations, transports audiences to Ireland with the siren call of Orinoco Flow, the playful energy of Teir Abhaile Riu, the power of the uplifting anthem You Raise Me Up, the soaring harmonies of Danny Boy, and a bagpiper-led Amazing Grace. This magical evening underscores why ‘Celtic Woman’ has been described as being “Riverdance for the voice.”
