4U: A Symphonic Celebration of Prince will present the music of Prince like never before, with a full orchestra! In addition, each show will feature a live band who will perform collectively with the orchestra, not to “impersonate” Prince, but instead “celebrate” Prince and his boundless creative output. 4U will draw from Prince’s singular and extensive music catalog, highlighting many of his greatest hits alongside lesser known gems. Set list and arrangements to be played by a live band and your Colorado Symphony at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

Steve Hackman, conductor
Vocalists, TBD

NOTE: Radiohead does not perform.

Radiohead’s landmark OK Computer goes even deeper when eight tracks—including “Paranoid Android,” “Karma Police,” “No Surprises,” and “Let Down”—are seamlessly interwoven with Brahms’ lush First Symphony.

Following a record-breaking year with the release of his number one album, “Si,” Andrea Bocelli announced today four special U.S. concert dates.

His annual summer run will close at the Pepsi Center in Denver on June 21.

Each performance will feature a unique repertoire from Bocelli’s landmark release “Si,” his first ever chart-topping album on the Billboard 200 chart. The world-renowned Tenor will also treat audiences to his beloved traditional selection of arias, love songs, and crossover hits. The Colorado Symphony will be joining Andrea at his Denver date and longtime conductor, Eugene Kohn, will accompany Andrea for each stop on the tour.

As one of the most recognizable voices in the industry, Andrea Bocelli has been thrilling audiences for over 20 years, counting nearly 90 million records sold worldwide.

Tenacious D
Colorado Symphony
Wynchester

Jack Black and Kyle Gass make up the Greatest Band in History: Tenacious D. They started playing together in Kyle's studio apartment on Cochran Avenue in Los Angeles. No one could have ever dreamed of where their genius would take them, but take them it did. Tenacious D played their first gig at Al's bar in downtown LA in '94 — they were armed with only one song at the time.

The band is touring in support of their latest release, the brilliant Post-Apocalypto, which is both an animated series and an album of rock ‘n’ roll greatness. Post-Apocalypto, the series, is an original, six-part animated video series from the minds of Tenacious D. Each frame of every episode was hand-drawn by Jack himself, with every character voiced by Black and Gass. For their Red Rocks debut, they join the Colorado Symphony for one night only!

John Prine, singer
I'm With Her, band

A two-time Grammy-winner, John Prine is among the English language’s premier phrase-turners. Almost 50 years into a remarkable career that has drawn effusive praise from Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson, Bonnie Raitt, Roger Waters, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and others who would know, Prine is a smiling, shuffling force for good. He is a 2019 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame & Songwriter's Hall of Fame nominee, a Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame member and PEN New England Lyrics Award recipient whose classic debut album, simply title John Prine, is recognized as part of the Recording Academy's Grammy Hall of Fame and whose songs have been recorded by Johnny Cash, Carly Simon, Bette Midler, Bonnie Raitt, Norah Jones, George Strait, Miranda Lambert, Zac Brown Band, and many others. His critically acclaimed new album, The Tree of Forgiveness, was produced by Grammy Award winning produce Dave Cobb and recently debuted at #5 on the Billboard 200–a career high chart position and sales week for the legendary singer, songwriter, and performer.

Of course, the opposite is true today. Those three songs – as well as “In Spite of Ourselves,” “Lake Marie,” “Fish and Whistle,” and so many others – are Prine signatures. His songs have been recorded by iconic singers like Johnny Cash (“Sam Stone”), Bette Midler (“Hello in There”) and Bonnie Raitt (“Angel from Montgomery”). He’s an uncredited co-writer on the now-classic “You Never Even Call Me by My Name” and his songs have been cut by country stars like Zac Brown Band (“All the Best”), Miranda Lambert (“That’s the Way the World Goes Round”) and George Strait (“I Just Want to Dance with You”). A gem from The Tree of Forgiveness, “Boundless Love” is also ripe for the picking.

Prine won his first Grammy for the 1991 album, The Missing Years, and he joined the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003. The Grammy Hall of Fame inducted his 1971 self-titled debut album in 2014. Two years later he accepted the PEN New England’s Song Lyrics of Literary Excellence Award. At the age of 70, he was named Artist of the Year by the Americana Music Association in 2017. Naturally, The Tree of Forgiveness is rooted in that same observant songwriting that he’s crafted throughout his career.

“I kept saying when I was doing this album, it’s going to be my last one,” Prine admits with a grin. “But if things go really good with it, I can’t see why I wouldn’t do something else.”
