Acclaimed tenor Mark Vincent brings show to Cessnock Performing Arts Centre on Mother's Day

The Mother's Day concert will be a matinee show, starting at 2pm.

Mark Vincent has had quite a journey since he won Australia's Got Talent in 2009. Aged just 15, his powerful rendition of Puccini's Nessun Dorma captured the hearts of the judges and the nation.

Vincent has gone on to become one of Australia's most beloved tenors, having released nine consecutive #1 ARIA classical crossover albums which earned national and global accolades.

He has appeared in Australian musical theatre productions including Dirty Dancing and My Fair Lady to rave reviews, and has performed at iconic venues including the London's Royal Albert Hall as a special guest of world-renowned soprano Katherine Jenkins.

In 2017 he recorded a tribute to the legendary Mario Lanza, which included a 'virtual duet' of Because You're Mine that was endorsed by Lanza's daughter.

In addition to his own yearly Christmas concert event, Vincent has been a regular performer at Carols in the Domain.

While COVID brought music of the music world to a stand-still in 2020 and 2021, Vincent was determined to make a difference, donating his time and talent by working virtually to raise money for organisations that were experiencing hardships due to the lockdown.

He also celebrated re-signing to the Sony music label, and just last week, released his tenth studio album, In The Eyes Of A Child.

The Impossible Dream is be a huge celebration for Vincent, after what has been a memorable and frustrating couple of years.

"I'm really looking forward to performing my brand new shows," he said.

Vincent keeps his song list a secret until the day, but hits including Memory, This Is The Moment, You'll Never Walk Alone, My Way and of course, Nessun Dorma, could feature in the show.
