Renée Fleming to perform at Wharton

World-renowned soprano and four-time Grammy winner Renée Fleming returns to the Wharton Center at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 16 in the Cobb Great Hall. 

Fleming, who is fresh off her Tony-nominated Broadway performance, was the first classical artist to perform at a Super Bowl and had the opportunity of performing at President Barack Obama’s inauguration in 2009. She has regularly visited some of the world’s greatest opera stages and concert halls, and over the past few seasons has hosted a variety of television and radio broadcasts, including the Metropolitan Opera’s “Live in HD” series for movie theaters and television and “Live From Lincoln Center” on PBS.

The evening’s program will include (but is not limited to) Schubert, musical theater selections (from her new album “Renée Fleming: Broadway) and songs and arias from three major films that have just featured her. 

Tickets are available at the whartoncenter.com, at the Auto-Owners Insurance Ticket Office or by calling 1-800-WHARTON.
