Following her highly successful five concert sell-out SA
tour in 2011, singer-songwriter, pianist and composer, Tori Amos returns to
South Africa at the end of June 2014 for four performances only as part of her
world tour in support of her latest album, Unrepentant Geraldines. Tori Amos
begins her SA Tour at the Teatro at Montecasino on Thursday, 26 June and
Friday, 27 June followed by two concerts at the Cape Town International
Convention Centre on Sunday, 29 June and Monday, 30 June. Unrepentant Geraldines
is a return to her core identity as a creator of contemporary songs of
exquisite beauty following a series of more classically inspired and innovative
musical projects of the last four years. These have included the seasonal
collection Midwinter Graces, the classically influenced Night of Hunters, and
Gold Dust, a collection of orchestral re-workings of songs from across her
career. Released in October 2012 Gold Dust included Flavor, which was remixed
by the late DJ Peter Rauhofer and peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Club
Dance Chart in February 2013. Last year Tori Amos also launched her most
ambitious project to date as a composer, along with book writer Samuel Adamson,
when their musical The Light Princess premiered at London's National Theatre
for the start of an initial run until the end of last month, with a possible
extension. At the prestigious UK Evening Standard Drama Awards earlier this
year, The Light Princess was nominated for Best Musical and leading lady
Rosalie Craig won the Best Musical Performance category. Tickets on sale at
Computicket.
