Love Is In the Air

All You Need Is Love

Looking for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift? The Tulsa Performing Arts Center is about to be awash in love as the TPAC Trust presents The Ten Tenors. They have a show prepared that is jampacked with everyone’s favorite love songs, aptly named “Love Is in the Air,” so get ready to swoon.

The Ten Tenors is an Australian ensemble that has toured all over the world and released more than 20 albums. First formed in 1995, their unique brand of music, featuring awe-inspiring 10-part harmonies, has been enjoyed by more than 90 million people.

The group has headlined over 2,000 concerts around the world, sold more than 3.5 million concert tickets and is renowned for their dynamic, choreographed performances, transitioning seamlessly from inspiring arias to soulful ballads to your favorite pop and rock songs.

“Love Is in the Air” is the newest show from the group and embraces love in all its forms, including some of the most popular feel-good love songs and wedding first dance songs of all time. They’ll cover many favorite romantic tunes, putting their own twist on pop songs, classic love songs and some of the most famous and touching arias in existence. If you’ve got a soft spot for a tender tune, this concert is not to be missed.

Some of the songs audiences will get to enjoy include “Anything for Love,” “Perfect,” “All of Me,” “That’s Amore,” “Valerie,” “Fall on Me,” “A Thousand Years,” “Unchained Melody,” “Shallow,” “Somebody to Love” and “Love Is in the Air.”

The concert was first dreamed up when one of the Tenors, Paul Gelsumini, was planning his wedding. He decided to use “Perfect” as the first dance song and had his fellow Tenors join in. It turned out to be one of the most memorable moments of the couple’s lives. “Love Is in the Air” has a lot to offer its audiences: a source of joy and hope, a chance to reminisce, and enjoy some laughs as The Ten Tenors use their voices and senses of humor to navigate love and its many forms.
