Featuring special guest Branford Marsalis on select tracks, this live concert experience is quintessential Symphonicity!

The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra has previously performed with internationally renowned artists ranging from opera luminaries Andrea Bocelli, Bryn Terfel, Renée Fleming, Kiri Te Kanawa, and the late Luciano Pavarotti to such popular cultural icons as Burt Bacharach, George Benson, Michel Legrand, Diana Krall, Tina Turner, and Randy Newman. The 45-piece orchestra are featured throughout the Symphonicity world tour.

Sting is also joined by a group of accomplished musicians comprised of Dominic Miller (Sting's longtime guitarist), Rhani Krija (Sting's longtime multi-genre percussionist), David Cossin (a multi-percussion specialist in new and experimental music and featured member of the Bang on a Can All-Stars), Jo Lawry (vocalist) and Ira Coleman (bassist).

DOMINIC TALKS TO MSNBC ABOUT WORKING WITH STING

Dominic recently spoke to MSNBC's Michael Ventre about working with Sting. He said "It's not always easy, but it's always gratifying. It’s always a challenge, it's always exciting, it's always interesting. I may have a way of playing a note that I think is wrong and he'll say, 'No, I'm happy with that.' I'll say, 'No, Sting. It's wrong.' He'll say, 'No, I like it.' To me it may not make sense, but he'll say, 'I'll make it make sense.' I never worked with anyone like that before."
