The Tucson High Magnet School Troubadours will perform with Josh Groban at his concert that begins
at 7:30 on May 9 at the AVA Amphitheater at Casino del Sol.
The Troubadours will sing "You Raise Me Up" with Groban, the same song he performed at the Super Bowl last February in recognition of the space shuttle Columbia's crew. Casino del Sol staff recommended the choir to Groban's staff. Troubadour members include Alison Davis, Oliver-Garifo Green, Genevieve Gaus, Joshua Goodman, Emma Greenbaum, Michael Hemphill, Eric Hobson, Geneva Hodges, Liz Hugo, Ezra Katz, Miguel Miranda, Jordan Moore, Jenni Pearthree, Melanie Romero, Catalina Ross, Michael Sepulveda, Anna Willis.
The Tucson High Troubadours are an elite group of student singers selected by an audition process. Choir members are required to audition for Regional Choir each year and are regularly chosen for this honor. This year two Troubadours were selected as members of the All-State Choir group.
Twenty-two year old Groban is known for his exceptional talent in singing and songwriting. He has been compared to musical greats such as Frank Sinatra and has performed various venues including the closing ceremony at the Olympics in Salt Lake City, a PBS special, and the television show
Ally McBeal. He is currently on his first American tour.
