Hayley Westenra - River of Dreams Tour

Hayley Westenra at Canegie Hall is now Sold Out.

As the biggest selling Classical artist of the 21st Century, with combined album sales of over four million worldwide, performances for Queens, Princes, Princesses, Presidents, Prime Ministers and the Dalai Lama, duets with Jose Carreras, Bryn Terfel and Andrea Bocelli and a tour with Il Divo, Hayley Westenra has achieved phenomenal heights and has only just turned 21....

The five years since the release of Hayley Westenra's debut international album Pure have been a whirlwind. Odyssey and her third album Treasure, followed, but Pure is still one of the fastest-selling classical albums in the history of the UK charts.

                                    

Despite all this success, Hayley still remains the same unaffected, down-to-earth girl from Christchurch, New Zealand.  Although she has an incredibly busy schedule, she still finds time to dedicate a great deal of energy to her role as the youngest Unicef Ambassador in the world and is a patron of several charities.

She was honoured to sing at the unveiling of the NZ Second World War Memorial in the presence of HM The Queen, Prince Charles, Tony Blair, and New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark.

Her Film and TV work has been extensive, including an onscreen role in NBC's "American Dreams," the theme for Al Pacino's "Merchant of Venice," two films for Disney and Terrence Mallick's "New Wold"  She recorded the theme and soundtrack for the BBC's new six part drama series "Jekyll "  (starring James Nesbitt),  as well as the theme and incidental music for an ITV TV blockbuster film entitled "Flood " (Robert Carlyle, Tom Courtney, Joanne Whalley and David Suchet).
