Released three years after
Remigio Pereira, Victor Micallef,
Fraser Walters, and
Clifton Murray topped the holiday charts with 2009's certified platinum Christmas outing The Perfect Gift,
the Tenors third full-length outing, the 12-track
Lead with Your Heart, draws on influences from all over the world and from numerous genres. A lush mix of classical, opera, and pop, the album includes stirring renditions of
Bob Dylan's "Forever Young,"
Elton John's "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word," the much-beloved aria “Nessun Dorma,” and new compositions that were co-written by
the Tenors themselves.
Lead with Your Heart also features guest appearances from
Chris Botti ("Lullaby [The Smile Upon Your Face]") and
Natalie Grant ("Amazing Grace"), and will eventually be accompanied by a PBS concert special CD/DVD that was recorded at the Smith Center for the Performing Arts in Las Vegas. ~ James Christopher Monger
