manny a. quito Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) Michael Bolton confessed that he had a secret passion for opera.

snowflake Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) The coast is clear................. Beverly Salvejo just mentioned in her credentials on The Singing Bee that she is an opera singer. Is this a publicity stunt? I remember Cynthia Pathag going around saying she is studying opera singing under the late Elmo Makil, so does Madonna (imagine just studying the whole broadway play under a classical teacher and then she claimed to be studying opera singing too) Maybe someone can clear this out. I smell something ain't right. Paging bioniczeenger and brahma ..................Let the fireworks begin LOL! Edited August 21, 2008 by snowflake Quote Link to comment

brahma Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) how are you guys? this thread's been too mechanical na ah? been very toxic sa work, kinakalawang na tito bio hindi nako makakasabay sa boses mo errr bev salvejo is no opera singer according to my maestro. Ive heard her voice wala bakas ha ui, if u studied under a classical teacher that doesnt mean yer an opera singer naden snow lukrecia kasilag already passed away and ive seen prof. fides asencio attended her wake, sopistikada parin ang lola mo and when will be our next eb? nga pala tito bio do we still have to attend that e.b. you told me yesterday?

snowflake Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 What EB? As for this becoming mechanical, that's why I stayed away. I like to discuss things in a natural manner, not bringing it direct from a text book. So let the okrayan begin. LOL! That's what I didn't like about some of the showbiz people. We do need exposure in the arts, but not in a make believe way. Just because you just studied in UP Music, you're already operatic, labo nun. Even Dona Buding wasn't able to resurrect her showbiz career using her classical education with the late tenor. Walang ganyanan. Btw, I was suprised si Placido Domingo sang at the closing ceremonies of Beijing Olympics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5gevFC3QpQ Quote Link to comment
snowflake Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Hi Brahma, Work is preventing me from watching anything (night shift pa ako). I am not even sure if I can watch Boheme when Gary comes back from the States. I know there's another opera to be shown at the CCP, forgot the tite. Saan binurol si Kasilag? When she was still alive, Inggit nga ako dun sa battery operated wheelchair niya......renewable energy source ! No gas! No emissions! LOL! Bio, Don't worry about Turandot, you always told me there are offers that always comes up, you will have your day. Quote Link to comment
brahma Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 (edited) snow i think your talking about The Magic Flute by P.O.C. or the La Boheme? I remember when i went to p.o.c. last May, the auditions for magic flute is open sa mga bata ages 8-12 ata Edited August 29, 2008 by brahma Quote Link to comment
snowflake Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 snow i think your talking about The Magic Flute by P.O.C. or the La Boheme? I remember when i went to p.o.c. last May, the auditions for magic flute is open sa mga bata ages 8-12 ata Both of them. Magic Flute and Boheme. OMG, I stopped singing since '99. I would rather watch and listen than perform. LOL! Sunud sunod magiging reunion from my former peers with our dead teachers, lapit na kasi dod nila. LOL! Text me naman, I don't even know if your phone is working. Quote Link to comment
snowflake Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Watched La Boheme on it's opening night. Yung mga guests na nanood star studded! All the members of the former Bad Bananas and their family watched: Christoper De Leon with Sandy Andolong, Edgar Mortiz, Johnny Delgado. Amy Austria, Joe Marie Chan, Ricky Lo were also there. They are in complete attendance to support Johnny Delgado's daugher Ana Feleo. Magaling talaga siya, hanep sa stage presence. I think this lady will become a huge star in her own right. Gary del Rosario, is getting better. He can easily give a high C, fully sustained despite the bumbling conductress, who doesn't have experience in an opera. His voice is so powerful that he is the only one heard on the high notes....the guy perfected his technique and had good experience singing operas in the US He received loud bravos, claps just like Ana. As the other members of the cast exclaimed that he's an inspiration for them to go on. Too bad he is only contracted to sing just one night only. Quote Link to comment
