Mosaic Music Festival 2007 - Kuh Ledesma and Regine Velasquez 14th March 2007

It was the March School Holidays for students and teachers alike (hee hee)...being too miserable for being sick too long...received an sms from Ming Ju from MCSS...Mosaic Music Festival is on for the whole week at the Esplanade! I did not know that teachers can actually claim the cost of concerts from the LBS incentive that the Ministry had offered to teachers!
Wow! blew my mind...really badly wanted to upgrade myself in terms of resources and exposure to more cultural stuff...The whole week was full of great acts at the Esplanade!
I drove my dad's car and wanted to uplift my spirits a bit...its was spectacular. The two divas from Philippines were really wonderful! Regine, I think most people can remember her from the song she sang with Jacky Cheung, "In Love With You", the other one i was unfamiliar.
They sang many cover versions of Whitney Houston, Bette Midler, Babbara Streisand, and of course, conversed quite a bit in Tagalog to the mostly Filipinos and Filipinas!

They are indeed a very musical people, throughout the show, there were constant clapping, swaying dancing and singing to the songs that they sang! The crowd is very supportive and the two divas are indeed very popular among their fellow countrymen. MingJu and me totally enjoyed ourselves ...we could identify with quite a number of the songs mah...
After the concert, me and MingJu actually bought their albums, and went to queue up the autograph session! Had a great time getting to know about the Philippino culture by chatting with the people in front and behind us...so fun! I actually went ahead, got my CDs signed and even posed for a photo shot! Aiyah, when you are sick for too long, pamper yourself a bit la with treats like this..:D
