Honoring "The Swedish Nightingale" soprano Jenny Lind's concert tour in America in 1850-51, this concert is filled with vocal fireworks and Victorian grandeur!

Soprano Sadie Goodman is the Swedish Nightingale Jenny Lind performing songs and arias by Mozart, Verdi, Rameau, Handel, Schubert, Schumann, Rossini, and more.

Step back in time to 1851, where magic-making Impresario P. T. Barnum has introduced "Lindomania" to the United States. He has scheduled almost 100 performances on a concert tour across the country for "The Swedish Nightingale" Jenny Lind, the Victorian era's most famous operatic soprano.
Barnum auctioned off tickets to the highest bidders, creating a ticket craze, with seven sell-out concerts in New York City alone! In today's dollars, tickets were as high as $8,000 per person.
In the Southeast, Jenny Lind performed concerts to sold-out crowds in New Orleans, Louisiana, and Natchez, Mississippi. The opera singer used much of the proceeds from this vastly profitable tour to fund music schools in her native Sweden.

This concert will be a star in the crown of a week dripping with elegant historical charm and experiences. Learn more at https://www.livinghistorynatchez.com/tourevent-tickets.
