Exceptional Woman

Global music sensation Celtic Woman look to their DESTINY with an enchanting new TV special, album, DVD/Blu Ray and world concert tour. The Destiny Tour features four sublimely gifted Irish women - three glorious vocalists and a brilliant Celtic violinist accompanied by full band, bagpipers, and Irish dancers whose exceptional talent and high energy bring a fresh fusion to centuries of musical and cultural tradition…

Over the years, Stefano di Battista has cultivated the extraordinary virtuosity and generosity that now marks him out as one of the most talked about musicians on the international scene in the last decade. This one-of-a-kind musician-composer has long been keen on paying tribute to the exceptional women whose existence has left its mark on the twentieth century, hence his project "Woman’s land". In this work, Stefano di Battista tells the story in music of Italian actress Anna Magnani, American singer Ella Fitzgerald, Russian astronaut Valentina Tereskova and French designer Coco Chanel. The opening of the 11th Festival sees Stefano di Battista presenting exclusively as a quintet this new album, his seventh as leader in his field.
