Baroque-pop. Transformative. Landmark albums reborn with symphonic grandeur.
More than twenty years after the release of his iconic albums Want One and Want Two, baroque-pop luminary Rufus Wainwright returns with a bold, symphonic reimagining of these landmark works.
Fresh from his acclaimed Glasgow concert with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in 2024 (“a match made in heaven” – The Herald), Wainwright brings this epic orchestral project to Gateshead for one night only.
Don’t miss your chance to experience the rich tapestry of Wainwright’s music—now elevated with stunning new orchestral arrangements that transform his fusion of pop, alt-rock, classical, jazz and French chanson into a breathtaking sonic experience.
Join us at The Glasshouse and be transported by an unforgettable evening of lush, orchestral brilliance!
