Jackie Evancho - The Debut [CD]

Jackie Evancho's newest release "The Debut" is an album of contemporary theater songs from Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen, Waitress, Greatest Showman, Wicked, Rent and West Side Story. As an 18-year-old, Jackie wants to embrace what she considers the new American songbook. Jackie is the first recording artist to embrace this new and very popular emerging genre. A worldwide sensation when she was only ten years old, Jackie Evancho has moved past the exuberant promise of a child prodigy vocalist, becoming a mature young adult with a clear direction as to where she, as a creative artist, is taking her career as a singer. A career that began with a little girl's fascination with the film soundtrack of The Phantom of the Opera and has become an evolving and enduring musical phenomenon.
