PHOENIX, March 14, 2024 – Three award-winning, international vocalists, including two of the creators of the upcoming Mad Hatter The Musical, come together to create an entertaining and unforgettable experience.nEleMenTrio are the new “Three Tenors” for the modern age. Join them for a fun evening of inspiring and moving music. Hear original arrangements of classics like “Danny Boy”, “You Raise Me Up” and “Summertime”, and unique versions of current radio hits and classic rock tunes by Journey, Sting, Kansas, and more!
Victor Valdez, Vincent Connor and Terry Barber are EleMenTrio.
EleMenTrio has been touring the USA and Canada following their international debut in Vienna.
“My hope is to create arrangements that will not only move people through my use of harmony, but will highlight the special sound that the three of us can make together,” says Valdez. The three believe the sound they make, the repertoire they are choosing, and the
arrangements themselves (which have already caught the attention of publishers) will distinguish EleMenTrio in the crossover classical market.
