The Voice makes a glorious noise at Woburn Abbey

The People’s tenor, Russell Watson, stars in charity concert.
Russell Watson fans are in for a treat as the award-winning singer has signed up to headline at Woburn Abbey, on July 24 to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign following illness that took him from the music scene for many months.

Now fully fit to perform again, the multi-platinum selling singer had taken time away from the spotlight after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. As part of his come-back tour, he has agreed to perform at the special concert in aid of the charity.

The picnic style concert is named ‘That Glorious Noise’ and will feature Classical Brit Award Nominee Camilla Kerslake, compare Colin Baker, with music provided by The Sound Power Orchestra.

Talking about the concert, international singing star Russell Watson said:”It’s an absolute delight just to be back on the stage, so the fact that I’m singing at this great venue and that I’m doing it for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign makes it even more special.

“I hope that music lovers from all across the area will come and enjoy a glorious summer’s evening of musical entertainment.”

Emma Jones-Parry, the Head of Events at the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign said:”We’re thrilled that Russell has agreed to star in ‘That Glorious Noise’ and know his fans will be excited to see him back performing popular classical pieces at this great venue.

“I’m sure the event will be a real success and raise vital funds to help the 70,000 babies, children and adults with muscle disease in the UK.”
