Jackie, the 12-year-old soprano prodigy from Richland Township, and Italian tenor Vittorio Grigolo will sing, accompanying dance performances throughout the evening, wetpaint.com reports.
Jackie will sing "Dark Waltz" during a pro dance performance with Tristan MacManus and Karina Smirnoff, states wetpaint.com
"Very excited to be singing on DWTS for classical week," Jackie tweeted on Wednesday. "Hope to see Katherine again. She's so wonderful."

Looking forward to the show tonight!

Thanks, Sempi!
I remember that. I was in New York then for Patch training and heard them sing. Because it was so crowded around Rockefeller Center that night, I could not see the stage. When I heard the singing, I couldn't tell the adult from the child. It all sounded beautiful!
Great memory!
