Sting’s USA and Canada tour successfully kicked off last Wednesday (2nd june). Here is what the press writes:
• The Globe And Mail
“. . . ,Sting looked great, and was in excellent voice – still hitting high notes, still strong enough that on his third (!) encore, he belted out I Was Brought to My Senses without any musical accompaniment, as the orchestra sat on stage and watched in awe.
But the real stars of the show were the arrangements: classical twists on classic hits that make Symphonicity a must-see.
They were often gorgeous, sometimes playful and at moments deliciously surprising. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic presented a shivers-up-your-spine, elegant arrangement. Englishman in New York, with its prominent clarinet passages, was a natural for a symphonic arrangement, and this was another success. The surprise toward the end was beautiful: who would have predicted the brass section in the back standing up and singing a call and response with Sting? (They looked thrilled. And rightly so.).”
• Vancouver Prince
“the orchestra read the tune like it was always intended for such an arrangement.”
• Vancouver Sun
“The symphonic arrangements certainly breathed new life into some of the songs, particularly on the Police material. Even angry songs like Roxanne becomes re-contextualized into a romantic light . . .”
