This 3rd Album Studio offers a subtle blend of classical songs with a number of more contemporary pieces, pieces that range all the way to pop. This album is a true joy to hear! *
This newest CD will certainly enthrall her existing fan base, but should also thrill a younger audience that needs to discover this sublime voice as it demonstrates her abilities as a serious singer. They will also discover that she has grown into a beautiful young lady! No longer a child singing the occasional childrens' song, but lending her talents to serious adult themes that are appropriate for a young adult. The first discovery was a new treatment of a song Jackie originally recorded when she was nine years old. “Think Of Me” is an Andrew Lloyd Webber piece from Phantom Of The Opera. This new recording has been reworked into a major piece of music that is known for it's surprising last few measures. (The original recording from her “Prelude To A Dream” album is no longer commercially available. This album, “Prelude To A Dream” was originally recorded when Jackie was nine years old, but the album has since been withdrawn from the market, and can now only be found on eBay.com, and even then, only at a huge price. One of the most recent copies purchased cost the buyer $4,500 USD!) This should give us, her French fans, a clue as to the true significance of this young singer.

Another significant piece is “Vocalise” by Rachmaninoff. This piece has been long awaited by her fans for many months, ever since she had released a short clip of a practice session with her maestro, John-Mario di Costanzo, her conductor for over two years. “Vocalise” reaches your ears then inevitably your heart thru a divine exploration of her voice. Jackie delivers her art with ease, credibility, and earnestness that will leave you speechless. “Vocalise” is an extremely difficult piece to sing for technical reasons, and only a great singer will tackle this piece because the inferior voice has nowhere to hide. This song may accompany you throughout your day, because it has the power to engage your emotions even though there are no words. Jackie's high notes are numerous and perfectly maintained. Prepare yourself "psychologically" to this friendly invasion of your musical senses! I also recommend her performances of Vavilov's (also known as Caccini's) “Ave Maria”, and “Dormi Jesu” both of which are marvels. Photo from the Performance on #JackieOnAGT Sept 10, 2014 ;)
Next comes a serious
modern classic entitled “Your Love”. It was composed by Ennio
Moriconne in 1968 for the film “Once upon a time in the West”.
Originally composed without lyrics, Morricone finally added the
lyrics which Jackie sings. This composition also showcases the power
and the sheer beauty of Jackie's crystalline voice, which,
unbelievably, shows continued improvement! After all, how does one
improve on perfection? This piece will provide the listener with a
chance to reflect on past memories as Miss Evancho graces you with
this song. The graceful flow of both the melody and her voice gives
this melody a celestial quality. This music may transport you and your soul with its beauty and her range. (It is worth a mention to remind the listener that this young lady is a mere 14 years old.)
The Rains of Castamere takes you to the heart of a fictional medieval time, a time enamored with major quests in constant searches for honor. This piece is clearly the most sinister song she has tackled. It is in sharp contrast to her other songs due to its melancholy melody, and is wonderfully interpreted by Jackie and this composition leads you, without a shot being fired, to these heraldic altitudes. Jackie manages to convey the feeling of dread and portent with an unusually “smokey” shade to her voice, matching the menace of the scenes in this series which is absolutely adored by America.

Jackie also includes two modern pieces of music that are absolutely outstanding: “With or Without You” by U2 is the first. I don't know how to describe this interpretation of a piece of music. In my mind, it was chosen quite well, apparently by Jackie personally according to a recent interview. No one will be able to listen without being affected by this wonder! You will discover this for yourself by buying the CD
on Amazon's site: http://www.amazon.com/Awakening-Jackie-Evancho/dp/B00L4QYEGU/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1405959417&sr=1-1&keywords=888430874220&tag=smarturl-20 or iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/fr/artist/jackie-evancho/id334346533?ign-mpt=uo%3D4 or here, Walmart in USA http://www.walmart.com/ip/39225517 Also, your feet will not stay still as Jackie plays her voice amidst the driving beat of the arrangement. It will give you "goose bumps"! This song's strong new rhythm gives her performance a new feel. You will, like me, feel the influence of her more Classical-Crossover style which confers added value, transitioning this song from a straight pop culture song into a modern classic. The passionate fans who follow Jackie are familiar with how she seems to re-invent each song she sings. We predict a brilliant career for this young lady. |
Finally, we come to
Jackie's interpretation of Lara Fabian's Je t'Aime. Jackie perfectly
assimilated the emotions required to deliver this poignant song. Lara
Fabian can be proud of her young friend with whom Lara has
previously collaborated. Jackie has learned well in this masterful
tribute to Lara. As well, Jackie's French diction is clear, while retaining her delicious American accent. As I listened to Jackie, I had the distinct impression that she was already in France!
I recently had the great pleasure and the opportunity to attend Jackie's taping session for her third (THIRD!) PBS special for the “Great Performances” series. This Great Performances series is a significant series in America, designed to highlight great performances of the truly great American performers. To be chosen only once in a lifetime is a great honor. Here, we have a fourteen year old singer who has been asked repeatedly to contribute solo performances for this venerated series! This third taping was held August 21st in Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania, a magnificent arboretum donated by Pierre S. du Pont to the people of Pennsylvania. All the more reason to marvel! The DVD of that performance will be on sale in December, and is not to be missed! Personal photo taken at Longwood Gardens before the concert
Friends, French Fans, when that day of glory arrives that Jackie's world tour arrives in France, I will make every effort to notify everyone by all means possible.
Jackie, all our encouragement and best wishes for great success for the release of your Awakening album, Tuesday, September 23rd!

A YOUNG OUTSTANDING AMERICAN TALENT!
Let yourself be carried away by this young artist who will move you... with nothing more than a song!
Jacqueline Marie Evancho (this is her real name) was born April 9, 2000 in the USA. Jackie can instantly reach into the hearts of an audience of several thousand people with incredible ease! Her style of music: Classical-Crossover, translated as Pop-Opera. She is capable of interpreting music ranging from Schubert to Britney Spears, and from Andrew Lloyd Webber all the way to the best-known tunes of Disney films. With modesty and courtesy, Jackie shares her sublime voice in a burst of generosity. She has already produced no less than five CDs between 9 and 12 years old! Jackie has no intention of stopping. Her concert program: fifteen scheduled concerts until January 18, 2014, with more to be scheduled, and she's now working on her sixth album which will also lead to her third (THIRD!) PBS solo concert. An amazing honor for any singer, but an unbelievable honor for a thirteen year old!
Take the time to discover Jackie and her voice and we believe you will find many moments of tender happiness from someone who just want to share her talent with all her heart!
Her management team is also her family, and that they hope to visit Europe in the medium term. Recently, she has also begun a second career as an actress. She has had the great fortune to play the role of Robert Redford's daughter in the movie "The Company You Keep" (may 2013) and model for Guess.
Let the adventure begin! Be careful, though - you may be become an instant "addict".
To believe - "believe" with lyrics in French, 10 years (written by Matt Evancho, her uncle, adapted and presented by David Foster, credit TopShotUS)
(Thanks Greg, Danny Zelisko, S Corbett for the beautiful pictures in blue dresses of Jackie giving her talent on stage with generosity)
