2013 brought us the Azura cruise, Together tour and Gawsworth for the first time and Preston with Russell Watson to name but a few!
Here is a video from Preston at the Katy Holmes benefit concert that people have fallen in love with (look at the views)
Ahhh April 2013 ~ AZURA CRUISE !! As soon as I learned the duo were appearing as Celebrity Guests on the 4 day Cruise ~ I booked my ticket, flew to Southampton, and boarded the AZURA, then waited in great anticipation to attend the 3 consecutive evening concerts. To ensure I would get a good seat in the lovely Azura Theatre I was first (and only person) in the queue ONE HOUR before the concert was due to begin. I then recognised Jan from her profile picture on FB, and she took me to where other fans had gathered near the doors to the Theatre. That 4 day cruise on AZURA and the 3 consecutive concerts are now imprinted in my memory. I was completely mesmerised by Jonathan's amazing voice and hearing him in a LIVE performance. Awesome. I had never been interested in Classical or Opera music but when Jonathan Antoine walked out to perform his solo pieces I was spellbound. At 18 yrs of age he performed Una Furtiva Lagrima and I was intrigued. Then Jonathan performed Empty Chairs at Empty Tables and his presentation and passion left imprints in my psyche. I am so grateful that Jonathan's sister Charlotte was in the audience and managed to capture The Antoine Azura performances on her mobile phone. Here is the link to 18 yr old Jonathan's Una Furtiva Lagrima performance on AZURA .... Amazing ......
