Jackie Evancho Singing “Songs from the Silver Screen”

Think: this girl is a 12-year-old professional soprano. A Pittsburgh, Pen­nsylvania native. She was first discovered on America’s Got Talent at age 10 and has recently made several television appearances to celebrate the release of her third album. Who comes to mind?

Jackie Evancho.

Her recently released album, Songs from the Silver Screen, is her newest collection for Columbia/Syco Records and offers her melodic interpretations of music from iconic movies.

In her first two full-length albums, Dream With Me and Heavenly Christmas, Jackie explored musical classics from arias to holiday standards. For this album, she collaborated with Grammy-winning producer/ engineer Humberto Gatica, who worked closely with superstars like Michael Bublé, Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Mariah Carey.

Just this past summer, PBS asked Jackie to make a second Great Performance Special. The event, called “Jackie Evancho: Music of the Movies,” featured many of the songs from the new album, including “Some Enchanted Evening” from South Pacific, “My Heart Will Go On” from Titanic, “Can You Feel The Love Tonight” from The Lion King and the aforementioned ‘The Music of the Night.’
