About Us
The "Symphony of Kings" brings back to life Sinatra's lush orchestrations, the dramatics of Elvis, and Michael Jackson's dance video soundtracks. All three of these artists brought much more to the stage than their voice, and this show elegantly pairs them with a symphony to match the breadth of their stage presence.
