The world’s most successful and bestselling soprano Sarah Brightman brings her “HYMN: Sarah Brightman in Concert” tour to Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla. on Wednesday, Feb. 20, at 8 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday, Sept. 21, at 10 a.m. Sarah Brightman fan club members can purchase tickets today at 2 p.m. Citibank cardholders can purchase tickets beginning Tuesday, Sept. 18, at 10 a.m.  Fans can access presale tickets beginning Thursday, Sept. 20, at 10 a.m. through Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood’s Facebook and Twitter pages.

Brightman will unveil her much anticipated 15th full-length album, “Hymn,” on Nov. 9 (Decca Gold/ Universal). This marks the multi-platinum Grammy award-nominated classical crossover pioneer’s first new studio recording since she released the international chart-topper “Dreamchaser” in 2013. Brightman returned to the recording studio in 2016 with long time producer and collaborator Frank Peterson. The result is the spiritually themed “Hymn,” an inspirational collection of orchestrated, choir-based songs that Brightman says felt soothing to record.

Known for her three-octave range and for pioneering the classical-crossover music movement, Brightman has amassed global sales of more than 30 million units. The only artist to have simultaneously topped Billboard’s dance and classical music charts, Brightman has racked up more than 180 gold and platinum awards in more than 40 countries. She is also known for her iconic star turn in “The Phantom of the Opera,” whose soundtrack has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. Her duet with Bocelli, “Time To Say Goodbye,” became an international success, selling 12 million copies worldwide. Brightman’s albums “Eden, La Luna,” “Harem,” and “Symphony” were each chart-topping Billboard hits and accompanied by world tours. Additionally, Brightman has performed at such prestigious events as the 2007 Concert for Diana, the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

To enhance her world of enchantment, Sarah Brightman has partnered with Swarovski on her world tour. Her elaborate costumes and dazzling tiaras will be composed of Swarovski crystals. Fans will also have the opportunity to take home a sparkling memento through a variety of custom tour merchandise from Sarah’s signature product line designed and embellished with crystals from Swarovski.
