Ruben Studdard: Ruben Sings Luther @ Count Basie Center for the Arts
Apr 3 @ 8:00 pm

IMAGINE… the vocals and music performed like Luther Vandross himself performed them in concert… with hits such as “Always and Forever,” “Never Too Much,” “Here and Now,” “A House Is Not A Home” — and so many more!

Ruben Sings Luther is a magical night out – a special concert event for Ruben Studdard fans and millions of Luther Vandross fans who long for his music – who now have a show that comes very close to the feeling of his memorable concerts – it’s a vocal tribute to his remarkable talent.

There will never be another Luther Vandross, and no other VOICE comes closer to him than Ruben – the remarkable singer who was hailed as the “next Luther” during his American Idol run, and was nominated for a Grammy for singing “Superstar”..

Produced by Stig Edgren – the creative force who staged events for numerous Popes and Presidents, created “Elvis Presley – In Concert”, The Colors of Christmas, designed shows for Earth, Wind & Fire, Gloria Estefan, and created Natalie Cole’s “Unforgettable” live video.

This is as close as you’ll get to a Luther show!

Engelbert Humperdinck-The Angel on My Shoulder Tour @ Count Basie Center for the Arts
Apr 5 @ 7:30 pm

Engelbert Humperdinck never wanted to be a singer. A career in music, yes, but he was extraordinarily shy. The youngest boy of a family of ten children originally from Leicester, England, he grew up in Madras, India, where his father was stationed during World War II. Engelbert’s childhood was dominated by the love of his parents and his brothers and sisters. He knew he could sing harmonies, but the power of his own voice came as a surprise to him and other people. “It’s just so loud, but I discovered I can be tender with it at the same time.”

In a career spanning almost 50 years, Engelbert has generated sales in excess of 140 million records, including 64 gold albums and 35 platinum, four Grammy nominations, a Golden Globe, and stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Las Vegas Walk of Fame, and Leicester Walk of Fame. He has performed for the Queen four times, several presidents and many heads of state. He has recorded everything from the most romantic ballads to movie theme songs, disco, rock, and even gospel. His unique voice has charmed millions of fans around the globe. However, it’s not just the voice, but the man himself, with his endearing sense of humor and self-deprecating jokes. Engelbert has managed to strike a new chord with a younger generation after appearing on MTV several times.

Engelbert exploded on to the music scene in the sixties with The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. His sixties did not so much swing as rage. The shy handsome boy catapulted almost instantly to world icon. He became great friends with Elvis Presley and the two legends often performed each other’s songs. His first single in the charts was “Release Me,” which went into the Guinness Book of Records for achieving 56 consecutive weeks on the charts. It was No. 1 in 11 countries. The song was re-released after being used for a UK national television commercial for John Smith’s beer.

The following decades saw Engelbert touring the world to sell-out crowds. Engelbert seems to take great pleasure in every moment on stage, a place where he can lose his inhibitions and no longer be the child who was once shy.

Engelbert’s music has transcended time and his voice still continues to reach out to people now – serving to transport and inspire, to embrace and to provoke feelings and emotions…ingredients that are no doubt the essence of his long-lasting success.
