Rufus Wainwright: Want Symphonic - Want One

About This Event

The King of baroque pop returns to Manchester. Pop idol Rufus Wainwright brings an epic reimagining of his Want One and Want Two albums to Manchester following a premiere performance at the BBC Proms, and tours across Europe and the US. Brand new arrangements, performed live by Rufus and the full forces of the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, celebrate Wainwright’s blend of glossy pop, alt-rock, classical, jazz and French chanson. Join us for two nights at the O2 Apollo Manchester to experience Wainwright’s signature showmanship in some of his greatest ever work, and lose yourself in an unforgettable night of spectacular symphonic pop.
