Katherine Jenkins announces Milton Keynes Theatre show as part of UK tour

Britain’s best-selling classical artist of the last 25 years, Katherine Jenkins will visit Milton Keynes Theatre next year, as part of her UK tour, 'An Evening With'.

The tour follows the release of her new album, Guiding Light, which will be issued on November 30.

For Katherine, the new album represents the culmination of a deeply emotional journey which began when her beloved father, Selwyn, died and found a new path when she became a mother.

It is an album which speaks of life, hope, acceptance and a universal spirituality, and for Katherine there is a sense of a greater purpose to her performance.

The Welsh mezzo-soprano says, “I have a life now I don’t think I ever expected to have.

"I am very happy, very blessed and I feel incredibly grateful. I feel whole new layers of emotion which have really taken me by surprise and made me feel like I have found myself, found my true voice.”

“My voice has changed. This album is the most intimate album I have ever made. It’s a mindful collections of songs. I’m not trying to prove anything, I’m not trying to show how many notes I can hit, I just want to take people to a place of emotion and reflection – to touch hearts and souls.”

Cherished as one of Britain’s all-time favourite singers, last year Katherine was officially crowned The No.1 selling 'Classical Music Artist of the Last 25 Years’ by Classic FM, and made chart history when her last album, ‘Celebration’ became her 12th UK Classical No.1 album in 12 years.

These record-breaking achievements cemented Katherine's position as the world’s most prolific artist in UK Classical chart history.


Katherine will play MK Theatre on Sunday, May 5, 2019.  Tickets go on sale Wednesday (September 5) here
