A worldwide sensation when she was only a child, Jackie Evancho is moving past the exuberant promise of a child prodigy vocalist, toward maturity as a singer, as a creative artist and as a young woman. The classical crossover singer returns to the State Theatre, 453 Northampton St., Easton, on Nov. 29. Show time is 7:30 pm.

Fresh off her spotlight performance of the national anthem at the presidential inauguration in January, Evancho seizes the moment with the release of “Two Hearts,” her long-awaited album from Portrait/Sony Masterworks. The album not only features popular hits both old and new, and classical crossover Italian songs, but also Evancho’s emerging gifts as a collaborative songwriter. A career that began with a little girl’s fascination with the film soundtrack of “The Phantom of the Opera” has become an evolving and enduring musical phenomenon.

Since she first dazzled American television audiences at the age of 10 — gaining global recognition with her stunning debut on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” — Evancho has released a string of platinum and gold albums, with sales of over 2.5 million in the U.S. Along the way, she has also made history — the youngest solo platinum artist, the youngest Top 5 debut artist ever in the U.K., the youngest person to give solo concert at Lincoln Center and the highest-ranking debut artist of 2010.

All six of Evancho’s albums have hit No. 1 on the Billboard Classical chart. The magnitude of her success led Billboard twice (in 2010 and 2012) to include Jackie on its list of “music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21.”

With the release of “Two Hearts,” Evancho’s journey reaches an exciting new place, both creatively and personally. The album’s title says a lot about growth: her heart is always in the classical crossover singing her fans love, but she is discovering another facet of her work, her range and, thus, her heart — a love of songwriting and a new, expressive pop sound.

In addition to her appearance at the inauguration, Evancho sang for Pope Francis I during his U.S. visit and, a few years before, performed at the lighting of the National Christmas Tree in Washington, D.C., where she sang for President Barack Obama and his family. Two months later, she was again invited to perform for the president and congressional leaders during the National Prayer Breakfast. She was also invited to perform on Oprah Winfrey’s farewell special.

Evancho is in many ways a typical teenager: she lives in Pittsburgh with her family, where she recently got her driver’s license. She is continuing her education in the midst of touring and recording. And her heart opens itself to more than music: Evancho is a proud supporter of her transgender sister Juliet and the struggle for transgender equality.
