About

International Pop, R&B and Jazz legend Natalie Cole, joins the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra for An Unforgettable Evening with Natalie Cole at The Plenary, Melbourne Convention Exhibition Centre on Tuesday 31 January 2012.
Throughout her highly successful career, the sultry and sophisticated songstress has received accolades in abundance - nine Grammy Awards, Songwriters Hall of Fame Hitmaker, George and Ira Gershwin Lifetime Musical Achievement Award, three American Music Awards across the Adult Contemporary, Soul & Rhythm & Blues genres and three NAACP Image Awards - 2000 Outstanding Actress in a Television, Mini-Series or Dramatic Special (Livin' For Love: The Natalie Cole Story) and Best Jazz Artist in 2002 & 2009.
Natalie is the daughter of the late Jazz icon Nat King Cole and first recorded with her father at the age of six on his Christmas album.   A tomboy who delighted in mischief and music, she often walked onstage during performances or sneaked into the jam sessions with Louis Armstrong and other celebrated artists.
Natalie released her debut album Inseparable in 1975 and became a star in her own right with the #1 single This Will Be (An Everlasting Love), earning her first two Grammy Awards in 1976.
Her 1987 album Everlasting was a cohesive merge of eighties dance floor funk and tasteful adult contemporary tributes, producing the hits - Pink Cadillac, Jump Start, Everlasting, I Live For Your Love, When I Fall In Love and I've Got Love on My Mind.
The seminal 1991 jazz collection, Unforgettable...With Love, was Natalie's tribute to her father.  It included the posthumous duet Unforgettable, sold more than fourteen million copies worldwide and received six Grammy Awards.
Recent albums have brought the hits Miss You Like Crazy, Sophisticated Lady, Inseparable, Our Love and Over You amongst others.
As an author, Natalie documented her journey through privilege and poverty, success and serious illness in her deeply personal autobiography Angel On My Shoulder, which was produced for television as the biopic Livin' For Love: The Natalie Cole Story. 
Diagnosed with chronic Hepatitis C whilst recording her 2008 album Still Unforgettable, Natalie acknowledges that the infection likely resulted from addiction decades ago.    Her second memoir in 2009, Love Brought Me Back, chronicles the bitter-sweet story linked to her kidney transplant and recovery.   Natalie is now the spokesperson for the Los Angeles University Kidney Research Organisation which supports the prevention, treatment and eradication of kidney disease.
Film and television credits include the lead role in Lily In Winter, De-Lovely the Cole Porter biopic, Always Outnumbered and as herself in Livin' For Love: The Natalie Cole Story.  She has appeared in over 300 television programs including Law and Order, Grey's Anatomy, American Idol, The Real Housewives of Miami and New York, concerts with Andrea Bocelli, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Nelson Mandela's 70th Birthday Tribute, the Super Bowl XXVIII and more.
 
If You've Got Love On Your Mind....don't miss An Unforgettable Evening with Natalie Cole and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra on Tuesday 31 January 2012 at The Plenary, Melbourne Convention Exhibition Centre.
This Will Be the only Melbourne performance and Grace Knight Quartet are special guests.

    Unforgettable..I came all the way from CT and WOW

    by PaulConnecticut on 7/25/15The Meadows Casino - Washington

    Natalie Cole came onstage and continued without intermission part of the Great American Songbook that her father, her mother and all the great artists she had the chance to meet over her lifetime. Natalie Cole gave a treasure trove of Music and History. Her voice, her timing has only improved with time. I could have sat there for hours more as she brought us into her life and to her music. WOW. She is a don't miss!!

    A Night with Natalie

    by allthatnat on 7/21/15The Meadows Casino - Washington

    We were not sure just what to expect out of the youthful 65 year old Natalie Cole but believe me she was nothing short of spectacular! Her voice still superb & as clear as a bell spot on every note, every lyric, every emotion. She was heart felt & easily related to the large audience, you felt as though you were up close & personal in a night club feel if you will. She introduced every song with some wonderful insight & dear memories.The flash back videos of her youth & her Dad were wonderful. We could have listened to her all night, please have her back as soon as possible so we can attend front row this time!!

    Natalie Cole

    by RME123 on 7/21/15The Meadows Casino - Washington

    "This Will Be" the last time I ever go see her. It was obvious from her performance that she is very ill. Not sure why she is exposing herself to the torture of a concert tour, when her health is in such decline. I have every CD that she ever made, I grew up on her music that is why I chose to attend this concert. She was constantly out of breath, and seemed winded, she sat through almost the entire concert. She can no longer hit her notes; song ballads by every other artist and only sang maybe 3-4 of her own songs. Her poor vocals were drowned out by the band and her back-up singers, was not a good concert at all.

    Nice. We weren't close, so we depended on the side screens which were kind of disappointing. They seemed to be focused on the guitar player more than Natalie Cole. I did love the "duets" with her father.

    A Must See Performer

    by Anonymous on 7/3/15Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre - Atlanta

    Natalie Cole is a performer. No lights. No puppets. No smoke and bombs. She reminds us of why we should encourage the entertainers of today to be more than...noise. Natalie walked out to the center of the stage and, for two hours, held the audience captive as she did old standards and blues, a Latin set, duets with her father, and the stuff that took her to the top of the charts. We need to support these national treasures as a way to say 'thank you' for the songs, for the albums, for helping me tell my wife how I love her. With all of that being said, if you have an opportunity to see Natalie Cole, you won't be disappointed.

    Natalie Cole and her band were great, BUT....

    by CKNJ2 on 7/2/15Town Hall - New York

    Natalie Cole and her band were respectively REALLY amazing, but unfortunately even though she indicated at one point to turn her mike up a bit, her voice was mixed way too low, and in spite of her having a really powerful voice, much of the time we could hardly hear her. Even the back up singers were louder than her. It's a pity, because a really great show was spoiled by bad sound.

    Natalie Cole was "Unforgettable"!!!!

    by cbrown1392 on 7/2/15Town Hall - New York

    Natalie Cole was simply superb at Town Hall! Her voice is still smooth and luscious as ever!!! It is so relaxing to sit back and listen to her. I love the way she sang What a Difference a Day Makes.
