Following his previously sold-out performance, Amine invites you to embark on a magical, musical adventure that promises to be one of the season's most unforgettable experiences.

Hailed as "one of the best holiday concerts in NYC" (Metro New York), this performance is a unique opportunity to hop on a musical time machine and travel through the rich and diverse landscapes of global music. Begin your journey in the vibrant Americas, from the passionate rhythms of Brazil and Argentina to the lively beats of Mexico and the United States. Then, traverse the enchanting streets of Europe, experiencing the romantic allure of Paris, the timeless magic of Rome and Napoli, and the cultural richness of Germany and Russia. Feel the fiery spirit of Spain as we delve into Andalusian music before transitioning to the soulful sounds of Baladi and Ajami, ultimately transporting you to the heart of the Middle East and North Africa. And to top it all off, enjoy a selection of beloved Christmas hits to kick off the holiday season in style!

Amine Hachem has been celebrated as "one of the tenors today, a tenor who can sing anything." (BroadwayWorld) His impressive career includes performances at world-renowned venues such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center, Place Des Arts, MGM Grand Casino, the Bellagio Las Vegas, and many more. He has graced the stages of international fashion shows, appeared in the Hollywood blockbuster Ocean's 8, performed with international orchestras such as the Lebanese Philharmonic Orchestra, Kiev Philharmonic Orchestra, and starred in leading roles in acclaimed operas and musicals like La Traviata, Tosca, Carmen, Phantom of the Opera, and Evita. With a repertoire that spans classical opera, musical theatre, and popular music, Amine's performances are nothing short of spectacular.

Accompanying Amine is the renowned conductor, pianist, and arranger Brian Holman, described as a "superb partner artist" (Hudson-Catskill) with a "magic baton" (Brooklyn Eagle). Brian's illustrious career spans performances with operatic legends worldwide and collaborations with esteemed companies such as New York City Opera, Opera Orlando, New Rochelle Opera, and Cleveland Opera Theater. His long-standing partnership with Amine promises a show that is both seamless and sensational.
