NIGHTLY ENTERTAINMENT

DOMINE CLEMONS PERFORMANCES
​
Prepare for an unforgettable onboard experience with the captivating talent of Domine Clemons, whose performances will bring connection and emotion to your cruise.

Domine Clemons, a 28-year-old professional singer, has been described as "the Enya of Sacred Music" and praised for "a voice that transports the listener to belief in the eternal". Domine moves effortlessly between genres: an intimate jazz standard one moment, a soaring operatic performance the next, a feel-good pop hit that has the entire room on its feet by the chorus. A retired opera professor called her "a highly flexible singer able to capture the essence of every style from pop, jazz, musical theater, and opera."

At 26, Domine was diagnosed with leukemia and given six months to fight for her life. After eight months of chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant, she was miraculously in remission. Through all of it, she longed for the day she could continue her music career. That journey gave her something no stage training can teach: the understanding that every performance is a gift, not a guarantee.

Throughout the cruise, guests will experience a range of musical experiences, from intimate, sacred arias sung in Cathedrals along the way to high-energy performances that invite the whole room to participate. With a following of over 46,000, a nationally recognized ministry, and a feature on EWTN, Domine Clemons brings something truly special to this voyage. Her uplifting musical performances will ensure this voyage is a trip to remember!
