Sarah McLachlan VIP Symphony Ticket Sales To Go To Her Charity

By Karen Bliss 3/12/12 | www.samaritanmag.com

For Sarah McLachlan's symphony tour this summer, the multi-platinum-selling singer-songwriter has teamed with Tickets-for-Charity.com, which offers seats for various events "at the same or better price you'll find elsewhere -- and support great causes in the process." 

McLachlan's VIP packages include one front row seat and a pre-performance excusive meet & greet and monies raised go to her Sarah McLachlan School of Music, whose mission is to bring music education to vulnerable and at-risk youth through free music programs dedicated to inspiring confidence, creativity and a sense of community among students.

No price is listed in the press release or on the site, but one can click "notify me" next to the concert date of your choice (some are sold out already) and it will send an email with the subject line "Please contact me when Sarah McLachlan-Symphony Tour tickets in [city] are available and notify of TFC events."

All tickets will be available for pick up at will-call only with no name changes permitted. The name used to purchase the tickets will be the name provided to will-call and ID must be presented at the box office. There is also a two ticket limit per purchase. The tour runs from June 22 at Toronto's Molson Canadian Amphitheatre until July 8 at New Jersey's Borgata Event Center.

Last summer, McLachlan made her first symphony orchestra performances at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and followed with shows at the Hollywood Bowl and MusicFest Vancouver 2011.

The Denver Post wrote:,"Walking on stage with a luminous smile, a beautiful black gown, bare feet, and a lovely acoustic guitar, McLachlan wasted no time in connecting with her audience...McLachlan's richly textured, achingly resonant voice sparkled in the confines of Red Rocks, making the song feel part prayer, part celebration." 

McLachlan's most recent album, Laws of Illusion, came out in 2010.
