At Sunday night's Chicago opening of "Billy Elliot the Musical" | REVIEW, Oprah Winfrey was sitting next to the show's composer, Elton John. A Harpo Productions crew filmed their regal procession up the aisle of the Oriental Theatre.
On Friday, when "The Oprah Winfrey Show" airs live at 9 a.m. on WLS-TV (ABC7), Elton John will sit on Winfrey's couch.
The four boys who share the role of Billy  in Chicago (Tommy Batchelor, Giuseppe Bausilio, Cesar Corrales and J.P. Viernes) will also appear. Needless to say, that will be good for ticket business.

Gobierno estatal promete a Elton John que no se va a caer el Pirata Fuente http://www.e-consulta.com/veracruz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=8210&Itemid=64

A principios de mayo el cantante de pop inglés, Elton John dará un concierto en Veracruz, en el estadio ‘Luis Pirata de la Fuente’. La seguridad estará a cargo del coordinador de Emergencias de Protección Civil Estatal, Francisco Rergis Pacheco. Sin embargo el funcionario al ser entrevistado asegura que debido a peritajes hay la garantía del que recinto soportará a más de 30 mil espectadores aunque del templete donde estará el artista no hay garantías pues eso corre por cuenta del staff. Hace unos días Elton se presentó en Merida, Yucatán, cuando empleados montaban el escenario se vino abajo hiriendo a uno de los trabajadores de gravedad. De inmediato los medios locales y hasta uno que otro funcionario estatal adjudicaron ese hecho a una travesura de los alushes, duendes mayas que se molestaron por la utilización, sin autorización de los dioses, de las pirámides de Chichen Itzá. Pacheco aseguró que la empresa es la que se hace responsable del montaje del escenario e incluso firman una carta al gobierno del estado donde se hacen responsables de cualquier desperfecto. En total unos mil 500 elementos vigilarán que todo se lleve con normalidad. Se esperan que el estadio albergue a por lo menos 30 mil espectadores. "Yo te garantizó de que el estadio no se va a caer porque tenemos un peritaje. Yo te garantizó que las personas que van a estar sobre la grama del Pirata Fuente van a estar cómodas. Yo te garantizó que si alguna persona sufre una baja de presión y una baja de azúcar van a estar atendidas". Recordó que el escenario es responsabilidad de la empresa y se hace responsable tanto que en el pasado concierto de Luis Miguel no dejaron que nadie ajeno al staff revisará las estructuras.

Ceux qui ne veulent pas aller aussi loin patienteront un peu pour goûter à ses tubes inoxydables (dont le fameux Candle In The Wind, à l'origine dédié à Marilyn Monroe), ils retrouveront le délicieux excentrique le 29 septembre, à 20h, à l'Oméga Live de Toulon.

Elton John’s Classic Song "Tiny Dancer" Translated Into Modern Art

http://www.pr.com/press-release/226645

cNoteART, a company that can turn any song into modern art, converted Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer” into a fine art image.

New York, NY, April 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- cNoteART, which turns music into art (a “cNOTE”), announces that it converted “Tiny Dancer” by Elton John into a fine art image. The Tiny Dancer cNOTE is available in numerous sizes and options via cNoteART’s Museum and Fine Art Custom Print Collections.

"Something really special happens when Elton John’s ‘Tiny Dancer’ is transformed into a cNOTE,” Erik Rosen, Founder of cNoteART, said. “In the middle of a balanced multi-stripe pattern sits four large color blocks in blue, yellow, red and white.

LSO meets Elton John

‘Rocket’ puts classic rock into a symphonic setting

http://www.lansingcitypulse.com/lansing/article-4206-lso-meets-elton-john.html
by James Sanford

Translating synthesizers into symphonic arrangements is all in a day’s work for Peter Brennan, the man behind “Rocket Man: The Music of Elton John,” which closes out the Lansing Symphony Orchestra’s Pops Series Friday night.

After a long career as a guitarist, music producer and music director, Brennan began looking for ways to combine rock and symphonic music. His first project was a show built around the music of Elton John and performed by Orchestra London in London, Ontario.

“It was long ago thrown out and rewritten,” Brennan said, in a phone interview from his office in London, “because it was my first project with a full orchestra. Over time, you learn much, much more about that orchestra animal and you get much better at it.”

In the 15 years since he launched his Jeans ‘N’ Classics group, Brennan has had plenty of opportunities to perfect his style. The company has more than 40 different programs in its repertoire, including tributes to ABBA, Fleetwood Mac, Prince and even “Shout It Out Loud: Symphonic KISS.”

Blending Top 40 classics and classical music ensembles is something of a balancing act. “If it’s a simplistic pop song you’re working with, you don’t want to destroy what made it work,” Brennan explained. “But you don’t want the orchestra to be wallpaper in the background, either.”

In “Rocket Man,” the arrangements are designed to maintain the essence of John’s music while ensuring the orchestra stays busy. “They’ve got some wicked sectional work in the show, on songs like ‘Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting’ and ‘The Bitch is Back,’” Brennan said.

While “Rocket Man” spotlights many of John’s best-known hits — “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me,” “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word,” “Your Song,” “Circle of Life,” etc. — Brennan said there’s also a certain amount of what he calls John’s “stylistic stepping stones,” such as the eerie instrumental “Funeral for a Friend,” “Madman Across the Water” (“which has a really snarky string section in the center that’s fun to do,” he said) and “Have Mercy on the Criminal,” which Brennan calls “a treat to play.”

“Around the time of (John’s) ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ album, it was the golden age of synth, of trying to create the sounds of trumpets and strings through synthesizers,” he said. “It was interesting to hear what they were doing synthetically and then bring it back to real instruments.”

Jean Meulleur handles the vocals throughout the evening as the program rolls through more than three decades’ worth of John material.

The result represents the best of both worlds. “The audience is going to get its Elton fix,” Brennan said, “and, if they’re not used to seeing an orchestra, well, here’s something new for you.”
