Top Three Music Acts to Make the Year 2017 Greater
World music is a genre which is quickly entering into the mainstream after many years in the doldrums of pop culture; fusions with styles better established in the western world have propelled it into the spotlight.
We’ve picked three of the acts tipped by top music agents to have a great year in 2017:
Jose Carreras
Silver fox Jose Carreras is a Spanish tenor who has been working in the music industry for most of his life - and he’s been perfecting his distinctive style since before Justin Bieber was even born!
Born in Barcelona, he made his first appearance on stage aged just 11 and has since performed in such world class venues as New York’s Metropolitan Opera House and Teatro alla Scala in Milan. Rubbing shoulders with Plácido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti in the Three Tenors confirmed his place as one of opera’s most versatile and best loved singers.
With a powerful and stirring voice, he’s a performer with real presence who is sure to add glamour and foreign mystique to any event.
Taimane Gardner
You don’t get much quirkier than world-acclaimed ukulele player Taimane Gardner, who hails from Waikiki. She first picked up a ukulele aged just five, and was quickly spotted by American pop star Don Ho.
Since then she has mastered tunes from the classical such as Bach to mainstream rock like Led Zeppelin and staple traditional songs from her native Hawaii, about which she is very knowledgeable.
