blogs.buffalonews.com/gusto/2011/12/jackie-evancho-performs-christmas-concert-tonight-in-sheas.htmlJackie Evancho performs Christmas concert tonight in Shea'sDecember 15, 2011 - 9:30 AM Jackie Evancho is just 11, but she has the rich pipes, the expression and the self-possessed qualities of a much more mature singer. She is also a show-biz veteran, appearing on “America’s Got Talent” and singing at the National Tree Lighting ceremony last year in Washington, D. C. She knows how to handle a mic, and to reach high notes many listeners have called unbelievable. See her for yourself -- and reassure yourself that she is not lip-synching -- at Shea’s Performing Arts Center this week. Jackie will be performing a Christmas concert. It promises to be a wonderful way to appreciate her gifts. Her album “O Holy Night” was a best seller, and Christmas songs bring out the pureness of her tone. Evancho presents her concert “Heavenly Christmas” at 7:30 p.m. today (Dec. 15) in Shea’s. Tickets are $35-$95. For more info, call 847-1410.-- Mary Kunz Goldman

Sylvester, thank you for sharing these. The fans attending that concert very eloquently described their experience. They will certainly treasure the memories as I have from attending Jackie's first performance as a "headliner" in Houston last February. I have also noticed that, in some of Jackie's most recent performances, she is beginning to move around the stage instead of being riveted to one spot. This allows her to connect even more with the audience and gives a certain fluidity to her performances. She is obviously gaining confidence (or perhaps her team is gaining confidence in her) allowing for that new mobility. So what's in store for Jackie in 2012? 2011 has obviously been a mind-blowing year for her.

Thank you all for your wonderful and detailed descriptions (and for taking the time to repost them here sylvester88 )of Jackie's concert in Buffalo. I look forward to similar accounts about Atlantic City and Pittsburgh!! I will be in Las Vegas on Dec. 29th and will post my own account of the concert when I get home on the 30th.

Thanks guys for the great reviews, and so glad it went well for Jackie!! 2012 is looking like it's going to be another incredible year for her. I see she's been adding quite a few more concerts to the schedule. Was hoping she'd get to the DC area in 2012. We'll see....may have to wait for 2013. I had a wonderful time at the Pittsburgh concert in October, though, and enjoyed meeting many fans there, and look forward to doing so again in the future. Go Jackie, go! Ian L

:)Just a matter of time she's bound to go there again with her mentor David Foster being Canadian and I believe Christopher Dallo is also Canadian on You Tube you can find Videos of her Toronto Performances.from Last time.
