Sting Symphonicity World Tour accompanied by the Orchestra Sinfónica Nacional conducted by Steven Mercurio.

Confirmed today, Sting will perform at the Explanada Monumental in Lima, Peru on Wednesday, February 23, 2011 as part of his critically-acclaimed world tour, Symphonicity. Accompanied by the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional and conducted by Maestro Steven Mercurio (Pavarotti, Bocelli), Sting will perform his greatest hits, re-imagined for symphonic arrangement.

Tickets are available as of Thursday, January 6 through Teleticket de Wong, Metro y RIPLEY (San Miguel - San Isidro - Jockey Plaza).

To accompany Sting's world tour, Deutsche Grammophon/CherryTree Records, recently released a live CD/DVD, 'Live in Berlin'. This exclusive collection features previously unreleased material and many of his greatest hits, such as 'Roxanne', 'Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic', 'King Of Pain', 'Fields Of Gold', and more, all re-imagined for symphonic arrangement. Featuring special guest Branford Marsalis on select tracks, this live concert experience is quintessential Symphonicity.

Deutsche Grammophon/CherryTree Records also released a companion studio album last summer, 'Symphonicities', to critical acclaim. Highlights include fan-favourites culled from The Police songbook such as 'Roxanne' and 'Next To You', as well as songs from Sting's solo career including 'Englishman In New York', 'I Burn for You', 'Why Should I Cry for You' and 'She's Too Good For Me', among many others.

In addition to the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional, Sting will also be joined in Lima 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).
