The Key by Opera Sensation Aria Tesolin Soars to #5 on Hot 100 Singles Chart

Sept. 4, 2013 - PRLog -- Former teen opera sensation, singer Aria Tesolin, now twenty, has gone where few pop classical singers have gone since Andrea Bocelli with her radio hit single The Key. The Key now plays on US Top 40 radio alongside pop music stars like Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, and Miley Cyrus. This week The Key soared into the Top 5 on the Hot 100 Singles Chart published by New Music Weekly. The Key has also reached the Top 10 on both Top 40 and AC where it is now #9, and making her one of the top 3 indie artists on radio, and likely heading to #1 this week.

The Key is the lead single from Tesolin’s new album, Ascension, which features exciting new pop sensibilities to complement her classically trained operatic voice. Fans have described the singer’s strikingly beautiful voice as majestic, ethereal and mesmerizing. The Key is about falling in love in a dream. Music and lyrics for The Key were composed and written by Tesolin, who is also a competitive spoken word poet.

“I love being a songwriter as much as I love being a singer and performer, so it’s definitely something I plan on doing again for my next album. I’m always jotting down ideas and melodies for songs, I never really stop writing.”

For Ascension, Tesolin and producer Douglas Romanow developed a new style of music that combines the poetic originality of her lyrics in an innovative sonic landscape where classical influences meet a modern electronic sound, in a style best described as as pop classical & contemporary pop fusion. Her songs often contain elements of pop, rock, jazz and musical theatre.
