Jonathan Antoine Soonest to Perform at Fred Kavli Theater  ImageThe 23 year old with the voice of Pavarotti and the youngest tenor to ever have a classical number one song hit the charts, Jonathan Antoine, (website: www.jonathanantoinemusic.com) has already had two number one charting classical albums (SONY) and recorded four studio albums. When Jonathan sings, it's immediately apparent you are hearing one of the best voices in the world. Jonathan has been delighting audiences in England and other parts of Europe, working with such world-class artists as Placido Domingo, David Foster, and Rolando Villazon and is bringing his magical voice to California for the first time on September 15th.

Jonathan's inclusive and down to earth nature have been a huge attractant in introducing people to the classical genre in which they normally would not have been interested. The popularity of his videos on YouTube has been staggering with collective views in the 100's of millions and he doesn't take any fan for granted.

"There's only one way to express what music gives me. It gives me purpose, it gives me point. When I sing, I can just be me. Since day one, fans have been asking 'When are you coming to America; when are you coming to our city; when are you coming to this state?' Now I can finally fulfill my promise to the fans to thank them for their loyalty and support over the past 6 years and sing for them in their wonderful country," said Jonathan Antoine.

Some of the causes Jonathan supports include fighting homelessness, anything to do with animal welfare and he is very proudly a patron of the Katy Holmes Trust, which helps raise funds and awareness for pediatric brain tumor research. Other issues that are very personal to Jonathan are mental health and anti-bullying. He has been incredibly open speaking in multiple interviews about the importance of self-worth and a general loving attitude and outlook on life.

With repertoire ranging from exquisitely rich Puccini Arias, through the emotional contemporary songwriting of Leonard Cohen, moving Musical Theatre pieces from Les Miserables and beyond, his love of music and artistry shines through any genre he chooses to explore. Jonathan takes you on a journey through not only the history of music but his own personal history, allowing for a deep, musical connection. This young man's stage presence and ability to convey emotions in song will leave you breathless.


Joining Jonathan and other musicians onstage will be composer and pianist, Pavel Timofeyevsky along with the Hollywood Chamber Orchestra. This concert will feature favorites from Jonathan's previous albums as well as exciting new arrangements he has not yet performed publicly. This will be a truly spectacular evening not to be missed!
