Two-time Grammy winner Peabo Bryson in Manila, Cebu, Davao
Ovation Productions is bringing back the top-tier adult contemporary balladeer Peabo Bryson to the Philippines. The two-time GRAMMY winner and Living Legend Trumpet Awardee is set to hold his Philippine concert tour 2023 in Manila on 19 July at the New Frontier Theater, in Cebu on 21 July at the Waterfront Hotel, and in Davao on 23 July at SMX Convention Center. New York Times music critic Jon Pareles called Bryson the “Pavarotti of soul singers”. His duets with Natalie Cole — What You Won’t Do for Love — and Roberta Flack — Tonight, I Celebrate My Love, a Top 15 pop smash — earned Bryson the tag “King of Balladeers.” It was two songs for Disney animated films that earned Peabo his two Grammys: 1991’s Beauty and the Beast with international pop singer Celine Dion and A Whole New World from Aladdin which he performed with Regina Belle. Both won Oscars for “Best Song.” Bryson has also collaborated with Tony Award-winner Lea Salonga on We Kiss in the Shadows (number one on the Classical Crossover chart from a new recording of The King and I score), Melissa Manchester’s Lovers After All, and Kenny G’s By the Time This Night is Over. Demonstrating his skills as an actor, he appeared in the lead role for the touring production of the Tony Award-winning Raisin (based on Raisin In The Sun) and in the role of The Wizard in a touring company of The Wiz. In 1998, he appeared in the Michigan Opera Theater’s 100th anniversary production of Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess and recorded two songs for the soundtrack for the Barney movie, one of which, the Bryson-produced Dreams, became the lead song for the album. In late 2005 Peabo released Live in Concert: Ladies’ Request in association with Time-Life, for whom he has been the spokesman for their soul retrospective collection. Live In Concert is an excellent collection that covers many of Peabo’s biggest hits and shows that his voice is still as strong and smooth as ever; to date it has sold over 3 million copies. He followed this in early 2006 with The Very Best of Peabo Bryson, a compilation of his biggest hits recorded on multiple record labels. Tickets for Peabo Bryson’s Philippine Tour 2023 are available at TICKETNET.com.ph. Ticket selling for Cebu and Davao will start on 4 June, available at SMTICKETS.com.
